Bug Description

If bzr fails to start an external ssh, it just gives an error

WindowsError: [Errno 2] The system cannot find the file specified

It should say what command was being run.

This was fixed when Andrew Bennetts refactored the code to move to different 'SSHVendor's. It now says:
$ BZR_SSH='' PATH='' ~/bin/bzr log $BZRB/jam-integration
bzr: ERROR: Don't know how to handle SSH connections. Please set BZR_SSH environment variable.

At least it doesn't give a "cannot find the file specified".

Changed in bzr:
assignee: nobody → spiv
importance: Undecided → Medium
status: New → Fix Released
