Bazaar

Unknown bzrdir format: 'Bazaar-NG meta directory, format 1\r\n'

Asked by Ricardo Soares de Lima

I've just installed bazaar version 2.3.4. Copied the a directory contanining a bazaar repo from another machine where bazaar version 2.2.0 was installed. Now I'm getting this error message for every single command sent:
bzr: ERROR: Unknown bzrdir format: 'Bazaar-NG meta directory, format 1\r\n'

Apparently the repo's format is the same, how can I fix this?

I don't think it should be \r\n. It sh ould be just \n. Which means however
you copied the reply, you changed line endings. Since much of .bzr is in
binary form, I'm pretty sure other files will be corrupted. You'll want to
redo the copy without changing line endings. (If using ftp, that means
"binary" mode)

Thank you John! I retransfered the directory and in binary mode and it worked.
