I don't think there is any sort of tutorial about this at the moment.

You should be able to use the bzr-git and bzr-externals plugins to add
the project to your tree, as long as you don't need to make any local
changes to it.

Whatever documentation applies to bzr-externals about embedding "normal"
bzr projects should apply here too - a Git repository should work like
any other repository.

If you have any problems getting this to work, please don't hesitate to
ask for more information here. 

Cheers,
