The settings for this is actually:

 self.branch.get_config().get_user_option('public_branch')

So you set it by putting:

 public_branch = XXX

Into either ~/.bazaar/locations.conf or into $BRANCH/.bzr/branch.conf
If you set it in locations.conf you can set a group of branches with a
single setting. Such as:

[/path/to/repo]
public_branch = bzr+ssh://my/repo
public_branch:policy = appendpath

And at that point, any branch such as:
/path/to/repo/mybranch

Will show:

To get this branch, use:
bzr branch bzr+ssh://my/repo/mybranch

Modifying $BRANCH/.bzr/branch/branch.conf worked. Thanks!

If I'm using /etc/init.d/loggerhead , where would locations.conf be?

Probably in ~/.bazaar/locations.conf of the user that's running
loggerhead. It might be nice to e.g.
support /etc/loggerhead/locations.conf for that.

Or perhaps the init scripts can override BZR_HOME to /etc/loggerhead ?

Whatever user is running loggerhead. I don't really know the details,
myself.

Well, I couldn't get it working with /home/loggerhead/.bazaar/locations.conf (with appropriate user settings), or BZR_HOME.

Hi David. I don't have an answer for you, but it has been a while since your made the last comment. Do you still have a problem with this?

Well, I can fix the message for single branches, but I can't fix it for a group of branches (except one by one).

@David maybe $HOME is not getting set correctly for the loggerhead daemon?

Marking as answered to see if Martin's direction gives the right push.

I tried creating a new user with a home directory, but that didn't seem to work.

How are you starting the Loggerhead server? Is it running as a standalone server, or through Apache or something else?
