Bug Description
From
http://
Looking a little closer shows that URL has a .bzr and a trunk/.bzr.
If there was no shared repo there's not a lot we could sensibly do.
As there is then we could try a little harder to be helpful. A message
that there may be paths below that given URL that they could branch
would be a clue.
Given that some git users may try and clone the shared repo as that is
what they are used to this would help the transition.
Thanks,
James

There is a proposal to fix this in <https:/ /code.edge. launchpad. net/~slyguy/ bzr/bug- 440952- bzrdir/ +merge/ 13431> but some more work is required, which Andrew has indicated he will do as patch pilot.
