Barry> All the gory details are documented here: Barry> http://www.python.org/dev/bazaar Thanks. I checked out, made a branch named test3, changed Makefile.pre.in to have a test3 target, checked it in, then tried to push it: % pwd /Users/skip/src/python-bzr/test3 % bzr push bzr+ssh://pythonbzr@code.python.org/python/users/skip/test3 bzr: ERROR: Parent directory of bzr+ssh://pythonbzr@code.python.org/python/users/skip/test3 does not exist. You may supply --create-prefix to create all leading parent directories. Did I misread the directions or do I really need the --create-prefix arg? Skip
