Remove Bazaar Entirely

If you uninstall bzr-1.11, how do you determine that "something still remains that remembers past branches and versions" ?

If instead, you used bzr to determine that, then , wherever bzr shows you something, try issuing 'bzr info', that should point you to some paths you may have forgotten to mention here.

Well, I uninstall and remove the things that I've listed and then RE-INSTALL . Next I init a shared repository and create a branch beneath it and add, and then do an update and it shows as "everything's updated as of version 11" . How would it know that these files are version 11? It's accurate. I did a variety of commits before to a file and incremented the code to version 11. But I was hoping to go back to the very beginning and start over.

Thanks for you assistance.

Ok, I found other and potentially conflicting .bzr directories under my "OpenSSH" installation. For some reason when I execute the following:

bzr init-repo --trees sftp://SERVER

I get a repository under my OpenSSH installation rather than the home directory for my user.

Thanks for adding your two cents Vincent.

You should use sftp://example.com/~jason to access your home directory (given that jason is your login)

I have OpenSSH setup to point to my "dev" directory by default (i.e., when i login via sftp client, i'm routed to the dev directory at c:\dev), but this gets lost when I use the following approach:

bzr init-repo --trees sftp://Developer@199.99.99.99

So, I'm blaming my OpenSSH config and will dig through its readme's.

Thanks,
Jason

Your ssh config might have something to do with it, but in general, the
sftp notation (concerning remote paths) Bazaar uses (I can look up the
sftp rfc if needed) works this way:

    sftp://host/absolute/path
    sftp://host/~/relative/to/what/sshd/gives/as/homedir

I'm not entirely sure if referring to a specific user's homedir works,
if bzr can do it, your sshd might not allow it. It would be as Vincent
said:

    sftp://host/~user/relative/to/that/homedir

I was able to route to c:\dev with the following notation:

sftp://Developer@99.99.99.102/cygdrive/c/dev

the last piece is what I have defined in the OpenSSH passwd file as the user "Developer" home directory. So this seems to be ignored by the bzr command and adding it explicitly will work.

Thanks again.

You're welcome, but it seems the subject of this answer doesn't match the discussion anymore.

As the answers may be searched by other users for similar problems, it's best if you can create focused questions that can get focused answers and create new ones when you get at least part of your initial query solved.
