Bug Description

Would this be something that bzr-git could take care of? git seems to be quite picky on author/committer lines. ;(

I ran into this when looking at my rep that was created by git fetch bzr:: with 'git fsck '

Can you provide an example of a line in bzr that doesn't convert to git correctly?

I think this is probably rather a warning than anything fatal.

The upstream bazaar repo for GRUB2 has many malformed commit fields that eventually cause git failures:

  bzr://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/grub

Squelching those bad lines resolved the malformed author error for the `git-bzr` utility:

After converting a repository with this to git using bzr fast-export | git fast-import the result is unable to be pushed to github because of this error.
