Convert Launchpad repos to git
This is a short guide on how to convert your Bazaar repos to git on
Launchpad, which is Ubuntu’s development server. Bazaar was chosen by
Ubuntu as their revision control system, and the developers did a lot
of work on the Bazaar code, which is written in Python. However,
development stopped several years ago, and Bazaar was no longer
maintained. A spinoff project named Breezy took over, and is
maintaining the code, now invoked by the commend brz
(but with an
alias to former ‘bzr’). Anyway, it’s time to convert my archives to
git.
