Comment 3 for bug 814632

Hi, I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with that branch.
The first thing is that trying to get that branch locally, bzr starts to sync then fails with

$ bzr branch lp:openteacher/2.x
bzr: ERROR: No such file: ('information.png-20081222091428-1l7jkfpnqphdx5fa-1', '<email address hidden>')

Only the .bzr directory is present, no other files/directories.

a bzr log shows:

bzr: ERROR: Revision {<email address hidden>} not present in "Graph(StackedParentsProvider(<bzrlib.repository._LazyListJoin object at 0x9a9d8ec>))".

Seems that it lacks of revisions 1-121, and this leads to some tracebacks into loggerhead, complaining about some RevisionNotFound and other kind of exceptions, hence the oops.

In "files" view, a traceback occurs when loggerhead tries to render the "bin" directory, but it doesn't find the associated revision.

  File "/home/pr0gg3d/.bazaar/plugins/loggerhead/loggerhead/controllers/__init__.py", line 104, in __call__
    values = self.get_values(path, self.kwargs, headers)
  File "/home/pr0gg3d/.bazaar/plugins/loggerhead/loggerhead/controllers/inventory_ui.py", line 147, in get_values
    filelist = self.get_filelist(rev_tree.inventory, path, sort_type, revno_url)
  File "/home/pr0gg3d/.bazaar/plugins/loggerhead/loggerhead/controllers/inventory_ui.py", line 91, in get_filelist
    change=change_dict[revid])
KeyError: '<email address hidden>'
----------------------------------------

And in "changes" view, the revisions are re-numbered, where last revision 143 is shown as 25.

Before looking how to catch that conditions (maybe with a more graceful exit), I'm really curious about what have made that branch like it, any ideas?
