Basically, as Olav pointed out, it is about having Bazaar on the server, with a git-serve plugin allowing it to fulfill the git client requests as well as the bzr client requests. The following scenarios will be possible: (bzr repo) <-> (git serve plugin) <--------- network -------> (git client) (bzr repo) <-> (bzr serve) <--------- network -------> (bzr client) both bzr and git will operate fully, nothing will be partially supported, since the bazaar repository format is a superset of the git repo format (ie. it stores more metadata). I talked about hg, just to highlight that the solution is quite future proof, because you can certainly apply the same solution to allow hg clients to access the repository. cheers, -- Ali
