The drawback of this config is that with newer versions of Breezy it
gets in the way of Bazaar operations. The relevant change may be [1], in
Ubuntu since Lunar IIRC.
What happens is that Breezy finds the lp: shorthand and resolves it to a
Git URL, then fails if we were actually pointing it to a Bazaar repo.
For example this fails on my Mantic system if I use lp: for Git:
bzr branch lp:~ubuntu-core-dev/meta-release/ubuntu
I now use lpad: as a shorthand for Launchpad Git repos:
[url "ssh://paride@git.launchpad.net/"]
insteadOf = lpad:
Paride
