Bug Description

I am attempting to import the following Git branch into Launchpad:

https://github.com/nitroshare/libnitroshareutil.git

However, I received the following error from bzr-git:

    Unable to import branch because of limitations in Bazaar.
    The repository you are fetching from contains submodules, which are not yet supported.

I completely understand this limitation - however, my project isn't using Git submodules. I did have a .gitmodules file in the repository at one point in the past (commit 2544ba) but it was removed.

I see no reason why bzr-git shouldn't continue with the import since HEAD does not contain this file.
