In the migration you may want three branches: 1) a rewritten branch that will be synced with git. You'd like this to be called "branchname" for clarity. 2) a pure copy of the launchpad branch to which you can pull updates from bzr when someone commits to that repo. This is branchname-update 3) a temporary branch, made on branchname-update, which is where you do the rewrites. This is the branch you then merge from to get the git branch up to date. This is branchname-update-rewrite. (This branch is immediately deleted when merge is complete) > > > Afterwards it's 196MB (we should probably do this to mixxxdj/mixxx as > well). Don't run garbage collection too often, sometimes it's better to leave some orphan leaves around just in case a mistake was made. Also I don't know how to run gc on a remote branch (github may do it automatically).
