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,

Re: [ANN] bzr-fast-export

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?

Ciao, Dscho

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.
