Description Martin von Gagern 2011-09-22 14:29:45 UTC

Executing "layman --add" for an overlay stored using bzr (layman -L | grep Bzr) will print the following message:

The command 'bzr get' has been deprecated in bzr 2.4.
Please use 'bzr branch' instead.

Seeing that layman is aiming for a new release soon, and assuming that the released version might stay around for quite a while, I guess it would be a good idea to include this fix in the release.

The "branch" subcommand has been around for quite a while, with get as one of its aliases. So changing the code to call branch instead should not cause any regressions.

Thank you, I'll push the change to the repo soon.  I have some other changes to finish with and test before I can push them.  I think I will have a rc4 soon with compatibility for python 3. 

It will be in commit 31bcdc6b7d0d6d9334f65a60ebac476bf865b9a5, once pushed.

cleaning up finally for an rc4 release.  Although python 3 support won't be included.  Probably in 2.0.1
