[David Cournapeau]

Here is what I get with bzr and bzrtools to 1.4:

bzr shell

bzr: ERROR: exceptions.ValueError: No closing quotation

Seems like the limit of argument length is about 32224 bytes. When trying to add a LOT of files, commit fails. (In the status message, filenames get truncated at the above mentioned number of characters.) Revert also fails for the same reason.
