New submission from Matthias Fischmann <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Hi,
as darcs asked me politely to report this, here you go. I just
- created a local repository,
- added a few files and recorded the patch,
- compiled a few of these files and did a 'whatsnew',
- patched the boring file to exclude latex temp files from the
output (and called 'setpref boringfile' a few times on the way and
still haven't got it eat the regexps I was giving it, if you want
to help me there i'd be very greatful).
- and called a 'darcs pull', just to see what happens.
here is the output of the last action:
$ darcs pull
darcs: bug in darcs!
Impossible case at Pull.lhs:194 compiled 12:00:18 Feb 17 2006
Please report this to [EMAIL PROTECTED],
If possible include the output of 'darcs --exact-version'.
i guess this is one of those 'nobody would do such a stupid thing'
things, but an error message like 'you cannot pull because you just
created this repo on this spot' would be less 'buggy' still.
see attachment for exact version.
thanks, regards,
m.

[Detect dates which overflow. Throw a more helpful error message.
Eric Kow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>**20060211194521
An example of a date which overflows is "105 years ago" on my system.
For reference: The "problem" is not so much Haskell's System.Time, but
in the underlying C library. System.Time uses Integer to represent
ClockTime, so theoretically this number can be as big as we want.
However, the function addToClockTime makes a call to 'mktime' (time.h)
to get a value for the number of seconds elapsed since 1970. And this
value is of a fixed-size type (time_h). If the number of seconds
overflows, mktime returns -1 to indicate an error. This is detected by
System.Time and propagated up as a user error "Time.toClockTime: invalid
input".

[Correct dateparser test's self-cleanup.
Eric Kow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>**20060129210701
The dateparser test was not properly removing its own tmp directory,

[Corrections to bugfix for (RT #466)
Eric Kow <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>**20060108225411
The bug fix for case insensitive filesystems was incorrect because
1. canonicalizePath does not canonicalise the same filename with
different cases into the same entry
2. RT #466 affects case sensitive and case insensitive file
systems alike (i.e. the bug description was wrong)
3. canonicalizePath is not available in ghc 6.2.2
This correction also has the advantage of being much simpler and closer
to what David Roundy suggested on the bug tracker. We remove the old
file from the slurpy so that it doesn't get mistaken for the new file.

[Make --exact-version also work if darcs is built from "make dist" tar ball
Marnix Klooster <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>**20060106205857
This is to prevent "darcs --exact-version" outputting something like
darcs compiled on Mar 2 2005, at 10:56:16
unknown
as it does when building from the output of "make dist", e.g., from the
official tarballs at darcs.net. (This is what a lot of people and distros do.
Gentoo does this, and I'm using Gentoo, and I want to be able to do "darcs
--exact-version" and have it output something sensible.)
The reason that this problem occurs is that while doing 'make predist' (in the
'predist' preference), Context.hs was nicely preserved by predist_copy, but
then thrown away by distclean which calls clean. So the resulting tarball has
no Context.hs, which results in the "unknown" exact version.
The solution consists of the following:
* Only remove Context.hs in "clean" if it can be rebuilt using its rule
in automake.mk (i.e., if _darcs/inventory exists, so if we are in a
repository).
* Target realclean is renamed to the newer maintainer-clean and extended a
little, according to the GNU make manual (not strictly necessary).
As a result of this, we now follow GNU makefile conventions more closely. See
the rules in the "Standard Targets for Users" section of the GNU make manual
(currently at http://www.gnu.org/software/make/manual/html_node/make_127.html),
and an interpretation of these rules in the "What Gets Cleaned" section of the
GNU automake manual (currently at
http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/manual/html_node/Clean.html).
Thanks to Taral <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> for the above info.

[RemoteApply no longer depends on cd, use --repodir instead.
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
This is a minor change to make darcs no longer use cd

Now the --repodir option for the apply command is used.
This patch came from a hack to rssh[http://sf.net/projects/rssh]
to allow using darcs as a restricted command without depending
on the cd binary.

[implementation of --set-scripts-executable on local darcs get
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
proposed fix for issue38
The --set-scripts-executable flag is normally evaluated when you apply
patches. But when you do a local darcs get, no patches are applied.
So as a solution, we traverse the directory on local darcs get , and set
any script files to be executable.
Note: one flaw in this patch is that it duplicates the definition of
what a script is -- a file that starts with #! -- in PatchApply.lhs and
Get.lhs. It might be good to refactor these somehow.
