git fast-import apt

Due to popular demand I moved debian apt and python-apt from bzr to git today. Moving was pretty painless:

$ git init
$ bzr fast-export --export-marks=marks.bzr -b debian/sid /path/to/debian-sid | git fast-import --export-marks=marks.git

And then a fast-import for the debian-wheezy and debian-experimental branches too. Then a

$ git gc --aggressive

(thanks to Guillem Jover for pointing this out) and that was it.

The branches are available at:

• http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=apt/apt.git
• http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=apt/python-apt.git.
