I explained to you multiple times already that is a different issue, but
it somehow doesn't get through your skull.

Let me try a different approach.

git-remote-bzr has a regression in Git v2.0.

Did you get the BAZAAR part? That's right, this is unrelated to
Mercurial v3.0 because it doesn't have anything to do with Mercurial.

*BOTH* git-remote-hg and git-remote-bzr have a regression in Git v2.0.

Sigh, you just don't seem to understand that you are thinking about a
different issue. I don't think there's any other way I can explain it to
you.
