Launchpad itself

Unable to import bzr branch

Asked by Daniel Mueller

Hello,

I would like to make the bazaar branch
https://code.launchpad.net/~cfmoro1976/+junk/jhiriseviewer
a part of
https://code.launchpad.net/jhelioviewer

The former code has been branched off of the latter and shall now be formally associated with its trunk. I tried using the "import branch" feature on launchpad, but unfortunately the import failed (http://launchpadlibrarian.net/102660602/jhelioviewer-dev-jhelioviewer-jhiriseviewer.log) with the error message
"Invalid URL: https://code.launchpad.net/~cfmoro1976/+junk/jhiriseviewer"

The URL, however, is valid. Could anyone help us in solving this issue? Many thanks in advance!

Daniel

The import branch mechanism is for mirrorring external repositories (either in Bazaar, Git or another VCS) on Launchpad.

To create a copy of an existing branch, simply push a local copy of the branch to the new location.

In your case (after removing the import):

$ bzr branch lp:~cfmoro1976/+junk/jhiriseviewer trunk
$ cd trunk
$ bzr push lp:jhelioviewer
