I think that would be darcs checking the file system where the repo is, if nfs and/or mmap() is safe or something else, I'm not sure exactly what. > Is there any way to specify where darcs should create its temporary > files, so that I can move them to /tmp? General temporary files, yes! It tries in order: DARCS_TMPDIR, TMPDIR, /tmp and _darcs/. The "test file" (and test dir) i question, no. Darcs must test at where the repo is. Perhaps you could save the time right after the update is finished and at new update invocations compare it to the mtime of the directory to detect if changes were made before the last update ended (and thus _likely_ are caused by it). -- Tommy Pettersson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
