Hmm, I think because I started out with Bazaar, I just assumed these were
standard features. :P Oh well, guess I'll be sticking with the bzr format for my
projects then.

Still, it would be brilliant if there was an option to run a Git repo in a
shared folder. Even without this support, I'm using Breezy to work with Git this
way, it's just a little annoying that it takes a good 10 seconds to create a new
branch.

I need to use Git for work, so having this option to be able to work more like
bzr even when I don't have the option to choose the repo format would be great.
