I unfortunately haven't had much time to fiddle with this. Having a full
time job doesn't give me much space for experiences :( And on my free
time, I've been a bit busy with one of my projects..


I've tried simply "plugging in" the bzr-fastimport plugin to do the
communication part. They already implement output similar to what
git-fastimport expects. I was stuck on the part where you have to
specify "marks" files, and about where to place them, so I left it there
for now.

I'll try and work on this pretty soon, but since I'm doing this on spare
time, any help would be welcome. Maybe the good thing to do would be to
put up a page somewhere with a mini-roadmap and the info needed/the info
that was found out?
By using bzr fast-import, the whole thing shouldn't take too long.

This script needs you to install bazaar and the bzr "fast-import"
plugin. Normally the fast-export command is implemented by it. You need
a rather up-to-date version, though.
I've found this script to work mostly for pulling in changes from bzr
into git. Pushing has proven to be from slow to non-functional.


As for the interest in this: mine is in using only one tool to do the
work right and not having to switch from using 3 vcs tools (the current
situation at work is 2 -- git and svn -- but soon bzr will come in). And
for the one tool, I'd like to choose git.
stupid reason? probably. but I've tried bzr and I don't like it.
