Launchpad itself

How to get your main branch on a new machine and then get it in sync

Asked by Vivek Sharma

Hi,

I just had to do a clean install (machine crashed). I read the bazaar documentation, it says about few other things, but nothing like if you are the owner of a project, and you loose your code from the local machine, but thankfully you have at launchpad(hosted).

what i did was
- bzr branch https://code.launchpad.net/~sharmavivek/reset/main
this puts the code in /home/myName/reset/main. but i would like it in /home/myName/reset as i had it earlier for that i did...

1. made a reset directory in my home
2. bzr init
3. bzr pull https://code.launchpad.net/~sharmavivek/reset/main

this gave me all the code, all the directories in my local reset folder. Then i added a file in one folder and did

4. bzr add
5. bzr commit
but now,

6. bzr push

give me the follow error
< Cannot lock LockDir(http://bazaar.launchpad.net/%7Esharmavivek/reset/main/.bzr/branch/lock): Transport operation not possible: http does not support mkdir() >

how do i now add/edit file locally and push/upload to the same main branch.

thanks

You pulled from https://code.launchpad.net/~sharmavivek/reset/main, which is not really a bazaar branch location. It does however have a redirect to the http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~sharmavivek/reset/main branch location. When you tried to push, it fails as we don't support push over http.

The way to fix this is to go:
  bzr push --remember lp:~sharmavivek/reset/main

To override what bzr remembers for that branch.

When branching from Launchpad, use the short "lp" name rather than the location of the branch in the web application.

https://code.launchpad.net/~sharmavivek/reset/main has a section that says:
   Get this branch: bzr branch lp:~sharmavivek/reset/main

It sounds like you don't have the local SSH key registered with Launchpad.

Also:

   bzr push http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~sharmavivek/reset/main

Will *never* work. We don't support push via http.

Made a new key, deleted the old key from Launchpad, copy pasted the new key.

did
- bzr push --remember lp:~sharmavivek/reset/main

We might support bzr push
https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~sharmavivek/reset/main it the distant
future, though. (This would use the smart server, of course.)
