bzr seems to be able to create commits with no committers

actually it seems that it is due to commits with multiple authors, seems to be occurring even on recent versions of git

yup. http://paste.openstack.org/show/83/

looks like the import crash is from commit:

revno: 328 [merge]
author: mdietz mdietz@openstack, Cerberus [email protected]
committer: Tarmac
branch nick: trunk
timestamp: Tue 2010-10-05 20:13:50 +0000
message:
Cleanup around the rackspace API for the ec2 to internal_id transition

partial success - needed to scribble before I forget :)
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bzr-fastimport/+bug/496677

apt-get remove --purge bzr-fastimport
wget http://launchpadlibrarian.net/58059367/262_261.diff
mkdir -p ~/.bazaar/plugins ; cd ~/.bazaar/plugins
bzr branch lp:bzr-fastimport fastimport
cd fastimport
patch -p1 < ~/262_261.diff

then 'git bzr clone lp:nova' worked for me

latest versions of bzr-fastimport / python-fastimport have corrected this, yay :)
