I push my branch to a remote server using bzr+ssh:// in bzr 1.9. On the server, a feed is generated by a plugin using the 'post_change_branch_tip' hook. This plugin reads configuration options for the feed from locations.conf. This works fine when I'm working on the remote location and committing from there, but doing it over bzr+ssh:// does not work.
The branch location in that case is somthing like "chroot--1212656852:///users/prom2009/jhoekx/public_html/thesis/", which is not matched by the usual "/users/prom2009/jhoekx/public_html/thesis" line in locations.conf. bzr changes a file:// url into a normal filesystem path when reading the configuration file, but it does not change chroot urls. I fixed it with the attached patch, by detecting chroot urls and splitting on // in config.py, line 490.
if location.startswith('file://'):
location = urlutils.local_path_from_url(location)
elif location.startswith('chroot'):
location = urlutils.unescape(location.split("//",1)[1])
self.location = location
Previous patch did not unescape the url, sorry.
