(Get the code!)
Thanks Daniel. I'm looking forward to getting this sorted out. BTW, I tried this:
mkdir tres; cd tres; bzr init; touch més; ln -s més prova; bzr add més prova; bzr commit -m "link to a file with a name in utf-8"
and bzr appears to do the right thing. Running "bzr fast-export ." on the resulting branching falls over though. I suspect it needs a few tweaks like you've done on the import side.
So altogether, we need to get several things working:
1. import with unicode filenames and symlinks
2. export with unicode filenames and symlinks
3. "bzr fast-import-filter in.fi > out.fi" needs to produce an out.fi equivalent to the in.fi.
Could you put together a branch, apply your patch and push it to Launchpad? We can then work through these issues, add some tests and merge your fixes.
