Bug Description

This morning bzr was upgraded to 1.3 in my box (as I use http://ppa.launchpad.net/bzr/ubuntu). I did a bunch of operations on my own repository and they all worked fine, but when I tried to pull new revisions from a remote branch I got this:

salgado@feioso [mainline]$ bzr pull

(I got the same error when I tried to branch something from the remote repository)

After that I downgraded to bzr-1.2-1~bazaar1~hardy4 (also from ppa) and the was able to pull the new revisions just fine.

I was trying to pull from launchpad's mainline branch. I just upgraded
my old bzr 1.2-1~bazaar1~hardy4 (which was working fine) with hardy's
1.3 and got a similar traceback when trying to pull. IOW, I can't tell
you how to reproduce it, but I can help debugging if necessary; just let
me know.

Using Ubuntu gutsy. I upgraded this morning to bzr 1.3. Have made several commits to my local/remote dev branch. When I tried to merge from a co-worker's branch (who upgraded to 1.3 late yesterday and committed with 1.3 the branch I am trying to merge from) I received a similar error shown below. I am trying to check with him to see what changes he may have made in the file that has the error....

Can someone try reproducing this with "sftp://" instead of "bzr+ssh://"? That wil tell us if it's a problem in the smart server or the knit format.

Also, I suspect that upgrading to packs will workaround this.

I have a knit format branch of the bzr-dbus plugin that shows this behaviour.

Upgrading my branch to packs fixes the problem. And using sftp:// avoids the problem too, it seems.

Andrew says he has an example branch that reliably reproduces this.

I hit this too and using sftp did avoid the problem.

It's trying to parse the knit line delta, which should start with a line of START ',' END ',' COUNT

Going over sftp:// works fine.

For me, it was the Ubuntu Hardy seeds branch.

Do you use bzr repos?

1.3.1rc1 just adds that bug fix. (1.3.1 final will probably just add the test case to the test suite on top of that.) So, you may as well upgrade.
