Re: [Haskell-cafe] poll: how can we help you contribute to darcs?

What about the idea of creating a GUI interface to darcs? I love the command line as much as the next guy, but I think darcs could really benefit from a polished GUI. I used tortoise darcs on a small project a while ago and it was pretty nice, but I think there is potential for much better. I

It would be useful if some darcs 2 hackers, contributors could help the ghc people evaluate if darcs 2 is still in the running. That would mean identifying the key bugs (eg windows case-insensitive file bugs, slow pulls) and seeing how hard they are to fix. Also doing a test conversion to darcs 2

Re: [Haskell-cafe] poll: how can we help you contribute to darcs?

Could darcs 2 performance be improved by making use of the order of patches in the reference repo, to identify reference versions and reign in exponential permutation issues? In other words, all repos are equal, all patches are equal, but once a patch has made the roundtrip through the reference

Hi I would contribute to darcs if only... The darcs2 announcement strongly suggested that darcs would no longer be developed. This was brought up in the #ghc discussion about whether to switch. I agree strongly with this. I would be much more likely to contribute if the project seemed
