Trying it on one of the problematic repositories:

    $ bzr info -vv bzr://bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/gnewsense
    Shared repository with trees (format: unnamed)
    Location:
      shared repository: bzr://bzr.savannah.nongnu.org/gnewsense/

    Format:
            control: bzr remote bzrdir
        repository: Remote: Repository format 2a - rich roots, group 
compression and chk inventories

    Create working tree for new branches inside the repository.
    Repository:
       13175 revisions

Which does return some technical information but not something I can use in a 
script to further know what's in the repository.


Eli's previous comment is relevant, perhaps I'm asking the wrong question:
What I'm trying to do is get a commit log from a BZR URL listed on Savannah, 
here:
  http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/

If there's another way which does not involve listing branches, please let me 
know.

Thanks,
 - Assaf.
