Hi, Unfortunately at this stage I can't even pull from the main darcs repo into the branch. I have no idea what's going wrong, but darcs just seems to take forever, using the CPU fully but never outputting anything. Can anyone try doing
darcs get http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc-generic-11Oct10/ghc --lazy > cd ghc > darcs pull http://darcs.haskell.org/ghc -a > and see if darcs hangs on this last step? While I have seen darcs entering some sort of loop and not giving any output before, generally making a new local copy of the repo solved the issue. But now it doesn't. I'm using darcs-2.5, and darcs check says the repository is consistent. Thanks, Pedro 2011/1/21 Simon Peyton-Jones <[email protected]> > Harumph.
