Problem exporting to git

[John Meinel]

I don't have any easy answer here. It sounds like bzr is saying something
is deleted that git thinks isn't there. I don't know if there is a rename
confusing it or something else.
Two thougts, you could try to hack the fast export data directly or you
could hack the fast-export plugin to detect this change and just omit it.
There are also tools like bzr fast-import-filter. I beleive that is
designed more around importing just part of your project, but it might get
you farther along.
