^- This is happening because the code changed to switch escaping rules.
So we have a saved location of:

.../%7E...

but you are now updating from:
.../~...

And the internal code uses:
  if url == saved_url:
    # updating from checkout master, just take a read lock
    tree.lock_read()
  else:
    tree.lock_write()

They no longer compare equal, so now you get a failure as you can't
write lock the master branch.

I don't know for sure the workaround, but something like:

bzr unbind; bzr bind; bzr up
or worst case

bzr unbind; bzr bind lp:bzr-git; bzr up

Should get it to work.
