Problem exporting to git

[Frits Jalvingh]

Thanks a million, I did not know those tools ;)
But at first glance they seem to be a "wrapper" for Git so that git can
access a bzr format repo.. I really need a git repository as the result, as
I'm planning to leave Bazaar (very, very sadly, because I truly love it)
due to it not being developed and maintained anymore. I expected to have
some time to do that, because as long as it works it won't suddenly stop..
But this problem might show that migrating might get harder over time, as
git fast-import changes and bzr fast-export stands still...
