Hi,
I recently created a Bazaar-plugin for Mercurial and would eventually
like to get it merged into the mainline as I think it might be useful.
I forked the crew repository some days ago and have been hacking on it
and today it has started working relatively nice.
Not knowing what the best way to share my changes was, I pushed my
repository online: <http://xivilization.net/hg/crew-convert-bzr/>. I
have made a lot of single commits with small steps, but maybe it would
be better to merge these commits into a single one.
For accessing the Bazaar tree I used bzr 1.5, but I suspect it should
be working with older versions too (some older versions don't support
tags - I'm already checking for that). Bzr 1.6 is reported to work as
well.
Currently it is lacking some more tests and there are places where I am
not sure what to do (these are marked TODO), therefore I hope someone
takes a look and tells me what to improve.
Many thanks to pmezard who answered a lot of my stupid questions on
IRC and tested some of the code :)
Oh, and importing works resonably fast I hope, (I might need to tune
--filemap handling a bit), 670 revisions in 47 seconds on my machine.
I'll test it on the Python Bazaar trees when I find some time.
Hoping for feedback, TIA.
regards,
Marek
