I don't have an idea how to do it in Savannah. But you can also use
git-remote-bzr (
http://felipec.wordpress.com/2012/11/13/git-remote-hg-bzr-2/ ) apart from
git-bzr-ng to checkout bzr repo via git. git-remote-bzr is part of git
contrib scripts and is already shipped as part of git pkg in many distros
(/usr/share/git/remote-helpers/git-remote-bzr in Arch Linux). I currently
use grub bzr via git-remote-bzr.
