Re: Pushing removed revisions

 

It looks like the way to set that flag has changed on Launchpad. The
old method using sftp does not seem to work anymore.

Instead, I tried the following:

bzr config -d bzr+ssh://bazaar.launchpad.net/+branch/dolfin/ append_revisions_only=true

This command runs fine and makes it easy to turn the flag on/off
without needing to do all the work with sftp and uploading config
files.

However, what happens when one tries to push with that flag set is
that one does not get an error message but instead a timeout and the
following error after 5 mins:

Connection Timeout: disconnecting client after 300.0 seconds
ConnectionReset reading response for 'Branch.set_last_revision_info',
retrying
