Converting git repository to bazaar

To convert git repository to bazaar repository use following steps:

1. Install bzr-fastimport plugin using 'yum -y install bzr-fastimport'
2. If multiple branches have to be converted then create bazaar repository using:

   bzr init-repo bzr-repo1

   Otherwise if only one branch has to be converted then create a standalone bazaar branch using:

   bzr init bzr-branch1

3. Go to git repository folder and use command:

   git fast-export -M --all | (cd <bazaar repository or branch folder>; bzr fast-import -)

   Replace <bazaar repository or branch folder> with correct path

4. Go to bazaar folder and check logs using 'bzr log -l 3'
5. If everything is fine optionally remove git repository or branch and rename bazaar folder appropriately.
