As of 2012-11-15 the future of this software is uncertain as the
current development has stagnated. All the lead developers have left
Canonical (the project owner). You might want to consider migrating to
other alternative DVCS software, like Git or Mercurial, in a long term.

bzr provides a "fastimport" plugin that can be used to carry out the migration (http://doc.bazaar.canonical.com/plugins/en/fastimport-plugin.html). Some Linux distributions provide this plugin as a separate package. Are you interested in doing that for Cygwin?

I went ahead and packaged it myself for my own use. I'm attaching my .cygport file in case you want to use it. I'm also attaching the .cygport for python-fastimport, which is needed by bzr-fastimport.


I can ITP these myself if you don't want to. Just let me know.
