Git + launchpad

"bzr heads --dead-only" will show it (as long as it hasn't been GCed yet, I think - I'm not a bzr expert).

FWIW: I've been working on git support in Launchpad for most of this year, and I'm really excited about getting it to the point where I can use it for everything, so this isn't intended to persuade people to use bzr. I just think that if we're criticising bzr it would be nice if the criticisms were in fact accurate.

OK, good to know it isn't really lost then :) .

Understandable. I get the urge to pick nits with folks who claim rebase is a "never use it" tool, but there are only so many hours in the day :( .
