Anyway to run bzr and tortoisebzr on win8?

[Patrick van der Velde]

Hi All

I just tried to do a bzr revert via TortoiseSVN (running bzr 2.5b2)
and got the following error:

Run command: bzr revert "design/specifications/History
specification.docx" design/uml/Utilities.ncp --no-backup
Qt: Untested Windows version 6.2 detected!
bzr: ERROR: exceptions.TypeError: unsupported type u'Resolution pass'

*** Bazaar has encountered an internal error.  This probably indicates a
    bug in Bazaar.  You can help us fix it by filing a bug report at
        https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+filebug
    including this traceback and a description of the problem.

I'm assuming this is because I'm running on the Win8 dev preview :) I
don't need it fixed straight away but it would be nice to know if
there is a work around for this?

Thanks
