For future reference, the magic incantation needed (many thanks to
lifeless on #bzr on irc!) was:

bzr info -v nosmart+lp:ipython

This was the only way to figure out the remote LP branch format, so I
could make a new, clean local shared repo with the same format from
scratch, to start doing branch work.

Whew.  I'm putting this here in case it saves someone time in the
future (or even another one of us during the transition).

Cheers,
