Comment 20 for bug 190725

Sebastian, so your eventual error there is from utime rather than chmod. While setting the correct mtime on files isn't strictly required, bazaar does expect to be able to do that when creating the working tree.

So, I expect the following would not fail:

    bzr branch --no-tree lp:civ4stratoverlay civ.white

See bug 124795 on ntfs-3g for some discussion about this and pointers on how to fix your mount options.
