Thanks.š I will look at the bug report.š I suppose very smart people have tried to fix this already or could not fix it without breaking bzr design.š I will look anyway and if I can fix it I will share.š I really think this is a valuable usecase. -M <div class="gmail_quote">2009/4/18 Alexander Belchenko <<a href="mailto:bialix@ukr.net">bialix@ukr.net</a>> <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> Maritza Mendez ĐÉŰĹÔ: <div class="im">> > On Fri, Apr 17, 2009 at 11:21 PM, Alexander Belchenko <<a href="mailto:bialix@ukr.net">bialix@ukr.net</a> </div><div class="im">> <mailto:<a href="mailto:bialix@ukr.net">bialix@ukr.net</a>>> wrote: > > š š Maritza Mendez ĐÉŰĹÔ: > š š > push base/backup š š # try to push a "safekeeping" copy of development > š š > to the backup area > š š > *bzr: ERROR: Could not acquire lock base/backup/.bzr/checkout/dirstate > š š > * > š š > But I see that bzr has in fact "succeeded" pushing a backup. šAnd > š š I can > š š > break the lock, and all seems to be good. > > š š If you're using Windows -- it's a known bug in bzr. > > > Aye! šHas it been logged? šI mean I heva not looked at the code but > maybe it is not too hard to fix if someone cares. š(And I care.) </div>Yes, of course the bug has filed (an year ago): <a href="https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/206406" target="_blank">https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/206406</a> Does someone care?
