There is another thread about this, it seem there is only one person
able to do that at Emacs dev actually...
I could get the bzr repo using rsync (thanks Stefan) and now i sync it
with bzr pull, which work more or less.
To use rsync see <http://savannah.gnu.org/bzr/?group=emacs>
The command line is:

rsync -av bzr.savannah.gnu.org::bzr/emacs/ my-working-copy/
(using -azv) is maybe faster.

Then go to the branch you want (e.g trunk) and

bzr checkout

Then to pull with bzr you have to edit:

"my-working-copy/trunk/.bzr/branch/branch.conf"

And add this line:

parent_location = bzr://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/emacs/trunk

Then you are able to 'bzr pull'.

After each failure run 'bzr break-lock' to try again.

Hope we will be able soon to just 'git-pull' ;-).
