Bug Description

Some bzr exports are failing with this error message:

«Cannot commit from a lightweight checkout to a stacked branch. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr/+bug/375013 for details.»

lifeless tells us we can fix this for a given branch using a command line like "bzr reconfigure --unstacked lp:~my/launchpad/branch", or in Python, by doing branch.set_stacked_on_url(None). (The change is only needed if the branch is stacked, so best check whether it is first).

But is that what we want? What if a user needs a branch to be stacked?

Ok, so I talked to Tim: this will duplicate data for all these branches, so we need to make sure that we remove this workaround once bug 375013 is fixed. Jeroen, when you land this fix, please add a bug task to 375013 for LP Translations as well so we can keep track of the bug and when it's fixed.
