[ANN] bzr-fast-export

[Adeodato Simó]

I was needing a bzr frontend for git-fast-import, and as there wasn't
one, I wrote it.

It does all what I need, so I'm not atm much interested in spending more
time on it, but as noted in the README, Ian Clatworthy (the author of
bzr-fastimport) is willing to take ownership of it under the bzr-fastimport
umbrella.

The current (fast food) code lives at:

  http://chistera.yi.org/~adeodato/tmp/other/bzr-fast-export.git

I'll update the README file in that repository once it gets integrated
into bzr-fastimport.

Cheers,

I've recently filed a bug about export performance and status info.
Maybe this could be related?

Nice.

I like having options, and I gather so do bzr users... Such as being able 
to import a repository from whatever format it is in, into your favourite 
one.

BTW is it possible to import a git repository into bzr with git 
fast-export | bzr-fastimport?

Yes, with the bzr-fastimport plugin written by Ian Clatworthy (not by
me!).

Adeodato,

This is now included in bzr-fastimport as of rev 57. I made a minor edit
to the README accordingly. Let me know if you want any further changes.

Thanks for this,
Ian C.

Coult either of you then update information about bzr-fast-export on

  http://git.or.cz/gitwiki/InterfacesFrontendsAndTools

Git Wiki page? Thanks in advance.


P.S. It is very nice that there exists option to import from Bazaar-NG
in Git, and vice versa, and double nice thet git's fast-import has
become language to do (fast) conversion.
