New submission from Eric Kow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
I believe this is one of the minor to-do list items we came up with in FOSDEM.
Somebody ought to implement a 'darcs cat' command which lists the contents of a
file managed by darcs. This would be useful because we could pass flags to it
like --to-patch (?).
This sounds good. I like the idea, but would 'cat' really be obvious to people?
...just give it an alias "darcs type" for the Windows folks. :-)
And: would "darcs cat" con-cat-enate multiple files? My UNIX soul says
it should, however that behaviour is probably not the friendliest for
many darcs users.
Alternative name suggestions: "darcs print", "darcs show", "darcs
output", "darcs view", "darcs edit" (the latter two would also invoke an
editor, perhaps in read-only mode).
By the way, +1 on the idea; I've had this wish several times but forgot
to record it.
