Grabbing files

Asked by Michael on 2008-10-31

How do I grab files from the repo? I get an ERROR that bazaar doesn't know how to handle SSH connections. I've tried setting the BZR_SSH variable on all options and it won't give. I'm using putty as the SSH client.

Can you run the plink command?

If it complains that plink can't be found, try

set path=%path%;c:\putty

or whereever the plink.exe file is. If you can, and you're still getting that error (it should autodetect it) then try typing this at the command prompt

set bzr_ssh=plink

if those work, set them permanently in your user profile or computer profile - I think by right-clicking the computer icon on Vista or XP.

Can you help with this problem?
