Mortimer/Bojan,

On my Ubuntu VM (512M) with rev 61, the http://repo.or.cz/w/AutomatorExifMover.git repository imports fine for me - copy attached. It does use a lot more memory than I'd expect though so some further tuning is warranted.

I haven't tried the git repository on this VM yet. If you haven't already though, be sure to do the import using two passes:

  git-fast-export --all > xxx.fi
  bzr fast-import-info xxx.fi -v > xxx.cfg
  bzr fast-import xxx.fi --info xxx.cfg

The first pass collects information about which blobs are referenced more than once so that the second pass doesn't have to keep every blob around in memory. Does using multiple passes like this help at all?
