Bug Description

The first time you use 'bzr GET existing project' against a new repository, you might get an empty list, even with the correct name and password - this is probably because you have yet to accept the ECDSA fingerprint (the prompt you get from ssh the first time you try to connect).

FAQ added to give a work-around, but we should really detect this with sshpass (or use something like:

ssh-copy-id -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null...)

This has just bitten me - for a non-technical user, this is a show-stopper.

Added -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no to runcheckout.sh and runnewproject.sh

** Warning ** this means that a user will automatically connect and ignore any key warnings on first connect.
