It works for branches now but not for lightweight checkouts.  You
get a lightweight checkout with "bzr checkout --leightweight". LCs
don't have the file ".bzr/branch/last-revision", so unless you can
get the revno info from another file (I don't think you can), you
have to fork a Bazaar process.

Tschö,
Torsten.
