2010-04-13 00:29:59 Andrew Bennetts description I was trying to use bazaar to version my home folder. The first command bzr init gave me the following error: bzr: ERROR: exceptions.UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xd6 in position 28: ordinal not in range(128) *** Bazaar has encountered an internal error.
