For Ubuntu, we'd like to be able to import Lintian into bzr. Unfortunately, at the moment this fails because there are some unusual characters in testset/filenames/files/:

(I'm not sure I agree with this decision, but that's a separate conversation.) Would anyone mind if, switching to my Lintian maintenance team hat, I arranged for these to be created on the fly rather than in revision control?
I've removed the file in the git repository and verified that HEAD passes a "bzr init && bzr add && bzr commit".
There were two files which were being ignored by the import due to their filename patterns - "testset/diffs/binary.c~" and "testset/diffs/.#binary.c.1.34". I've removed both and added a generated .c~ file to the filenames testset; the net effect is largely zero as we were already testing the CVS conflict file tag in the filenames testset.
