Hi,
How far did git-bzr or git-remote-bzr get?

I've tried git-bzr from the repo and I seem to be stumbling on bzr not having the fast-export command after I install the fast-import plugin as per [1]. So I think its a bazzar problem not a git-bzr one. Has anyone got a fully worked example including the installation of the required bits and pieces.

Alternatively what I'm really trying to do is update a series of patches for an upstream project that is managed with bazzar. We have 30 or so patches with our customizations so I'd like to get git (or bzr) to do the heavy lifting for me. In git I'd do something like this

git clone <upstream> git checkout <tag that corresponds to the version of the tarball we use> git checkout -b our-patches git am <patches> git rebase <tag that corresponds to the new version we want to use> git format-patch ...

Anybody got a similar recipe for bzr? (yes I'll go ask on the bzr list too)
