Bazaar has a Launchpad pseudo-protocol (lp:) that able the user to operate in remote branchs without write full Launchpad location, I’m searching a way to create my own pseudo-protocols in a way like this (similar to GIT):
bzr remote my sftp://myuser@myserver.com/home/myuser/myrepo/
bzr push my:mybranch
bzr push my:otherbranch
bzr push my:anotherbranch
…instead of…
bzr push sftp://myuser@myserver.com/home/myuser/myrepo/mybranch
bzr push sftp://myuser@myserver.com/home/myuser/myrepo/otherbranch
bzr push sftp://myuser@myserver.com/home/myuser/myrepo/anotherbranch
…that is a pain in the ass.
I readed about bazaar.conf but it seems only able you to set a globals push locations for each branch/repo. Another way I saw is to use alias, but has the same problem, is very ugly when is needed to create new branches.
Is posible to do this without modify the BZR code? This should be obvious…
The my:xxx syntax called
directory servicesin bzr. You can define your own directory service via plugin (write in Python).Good example of such plugins is bookmark plugin. Check it.
Maybe this plugin itself will be enough for your needs.
