New submission from Mark Stosberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
( One more 'rollback' related bug import for today. This one is from RT#459).
####
If I try to rollback a depended-upon patch, darcs just complains:
--- clip ---
$ darcs changes
Wed Jul 6 14:12:49 EEST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* changed a line in foo
Wed Jul 6 14:12:32 EEST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* added a line into foo
Wed Jul 6 14:12:04 EEST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* adding foo
$ darcs rollback -p 'added a line into foo'
Skipping depended-upon patch:
Wed Jul 6 14:12:32 EEST 2005 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* added a line into foo
Cancelling rollback since no patch was selected.

I think darcs should, instead, try to raise the patch as near to the
current moment as possible without conflicts, and then reverse-apply it.

I agree. More precisely, the behaviour of rolling back A in (A,B) should
be the same as merging (A, B) with (A, A-1) (i.e. causing conflicts to
happen).
