Checkouts require working trees at server branch??

Asked by Jon Loldrup

I have long been using this server branch:

sftp://brok.diku.dk/usr/local/projects/disk07/dirdiffsim/repo/trunk

with local checkouts and branches

now, coming back to it after a while (in the mean time my local branch had been pushed to a new server and I used the new server for my server branch), this is what happens:

loldrup@explab:~/repo/trunk$ bzr bind sftp://brok.diku.dk/usr/local/projects/disk07/dirdiffsim/repo/trunk
loldrup@explab:~/repo/trunk$ bzr update sftp://brok.diku.dk/usr/local/projects/disk07/dirdiffsim/repo/trunk
bzr: ERROR: No WorkingTree exists for "sftp://brok.diku.dk/usr/local/projects/disk07/dirdiffsim/repo/trunk/.bzr/checkout/".
loldrup@explab:~/repo/trunk$

hmm... Does checkouts require that a working tree is present in/at the server branch?? Since when?

Jon

^- you don't give a path to "bzr update" for where to update from. The
command you gave here was to update the sftp branch.

What you want is just:

bzr bind sftp://remote/branch
bzr update
