New submission from Aaron Kaplan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I have a repository in which "darcs diff" correctly shows an unrecorded modification, but "darcs whatsnew" says "No changes." Darcs repair says that the repo is consistent (nothing to repair).
When I copy the repo using cp -r, darcs whatsnew does find the change in the new copy. When I copy it using cp -rd, which preserves links, it doesn't find it in the new repo. I think I got the repo into this state by the following steps. I recorded patch 1, followed by patch 2, which both change the same file. Then I noticed a bug. I made a modification in the file, tested it, and decided to amend-record patch 1 with this modification. I first had to unpull patch 2, because 2 depended on 1 so darcs wouldn't let me amend 1 while 2 was in the repo. Then I ran amend-record, and even though the modification was still there in the file, darcs didn't find any changes to amend with. -Aaron ---------- messages: 939 nosy: droundy, lists2546, tommy status: unread title: Difference between darcs whatsnew and darcs diff ____________________________________ Darcs issue tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.darcs.net/issue252> ____________________________________ _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
