author mapping

Asked by Adrien Saladin

Hi,

Sorry if this is a silly question. I have converted a svn repo into bazaar branches. Everything is fine but I would like to change revision authors into something more bzr-style. So intead of subversion logins, I would like to get a real name with the committer e-mail.

I just can't find the option in the documentation.

Thanks!

This is not possible at the moment - bzr-svn is a deterministic importer, and Bazaar does not support changing the properties of a revision after it has been created.

This could be supported once Bazaar supports changing the metadata for a revision after it has been created.

I've had a similar problem, and worked around it by using fast-import ('bzr fast-export-from-svn', 'bzr fast-import --user-map=...'.)
