Dear Darcs developers
As you know, we switched GHC to Darcs some while ago, which makes Darcs
absolutely mission-critical to GHC. But I've encountered two serious
Darcs crashes recently (two different internal consistency errors not
seg-faults). I reported the first to [EMAIL PROTECTED], but had no
response. I managed to work around it by abandoning that repository
altogether, and manually applying patches to a fresh copy. But it was
scary.
The second one is only today; I've just sent off a bug report to the
address above. I would really appreciate advice about how to work
around it.
The situation (in both cases) couldn't be simpler. I'm working on a
variant of GHC. I have accumulated a bunch of patches in my variant
repository. I wanted to pull patches from the main repository, but
Darcs crashed. 'darcs check' reports that the repository is consistent.
I'd *really* appreciate some help with this. Please. Both are 100%
reproducible, and are 100% show-stoppers. Thanks!
Simon
