I think your best bet is 

bzr missing --mine-only sftp://bzr.sv.gnu.org/srv/bzr/emacs/emacs-23

However, as we are using the dumb http/sftp server, there is no
guarantee that the amount of data needed for the operation above is
significantly less than the data needed for checking out the emacs-23
branch.
