One year later I created a mirror of GNU Bazaar repository on Launchpad, Savannah has Loggerhead active again, so now it is possible to browse the sources via http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/rebot/ thanks to mjflick.
Anyway I will keep the mirror on Launchpad, it doesn't hurt.

I have created a mirror of GNU Bazaar repository on Launchpad, it syncs with repository on Savannah automatically every few hours.
I have set up a page with links to browse the files and history of branches as Launchpad has loggerhead installed.
Summary of branches to browse.

At the moment there are three branches of development:
- main: bug fixes and minor improvements
