Hello, I'm using git-remote-bzr to access the GNU Emacs Bazaar repo. I followed the guideline described here: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2013-05/msg00008.html

Pulling and pushing worked flawless for several month. But recently git bzr stopped working with the following error message:

$ git pull
fatal: mark :399654 not declared
fast-import: dumping crash report to .git/fast_import_crash_16173
fatal: Error while running fast-import
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/git-remote-bzr", line 947, in <module>
    sys.exit(main(sys.argv))
  File "/usr/bin/git-remote-bzr", line 931, in main
    do_import(parser)
  File "/usr/bin/git-remote-bzr", line 399, in do_import
    export_branch(repo, name)
  File "/usr/bin/git-remote-bzr", line 327, in export_branch
    modified_final = export_files(cur_tree, modified)
  File "/usr/bin/git-remote-bzr", line 272, in export_files
    print d
IOError: [Errno 32] Broken pipe

And the crash report

$ cat .git/fast_import_crash_16173

I'm using git version 1.8.5.3 on Kubuntu 13.10 installed from https://launchpad.net/~git-core/+archive/ppa.

What's wrong and how can I fix this?
