Each immediate subdirectory of the repository directory is a branch, except if its name is ".bzr" (the latter is where the repo holds its metadata that is common to all the branches). If there are no subdirectories except '".bzr", then you have a standalone branch, i.e. a single branch. > On the Savannah website they are referred to as branches, but perhaps they > are just directories. Each branch in bzr is a separate directory. Co-located branches were introduced only in bzr 2.6, and I don't think any projects uses them. > I'll rephrase the question from a very from a very technical POV: > Given the following URLS of a BZR project (which is what GNU Savannah gives > me): > bzr://bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/gnewsense/ > http://bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/r/gnewsense > > How can I tell (programmatically) which sub-directories or branches (or > another BZR term) do these repositories have? See above (but that requires access to the server). Alternatively, "bzr branches -R", already mentioned earlier, should do the job, albeit slowly. E.g., for gnewsense, it just took about 25 minutes and produced a long list of branches which I show below. > From: Glenn Morris <r...@gnu.org> > Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2014 16:25:17 -0400 > Cc: savannah-hackers-public@gnu.org > > This page says `bzr heads' will work: > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19082720/getting-all-bazaar-bzr-branch-list-with-bzr-command > > but I did not test it. I did. It works as slowly as "bzr branches -R", produces the same information, but with a lot more clutter (it displays the tip revision for each branch, which Assaf doesn't need, AFAICT), and fills up your ~/.bzr.log file with a lot of filesystem errors.
