We have a developer FAQ http://darcs.net/DarcsWiki/DeveloperFAQ
And some developer Tips http://darcs.net/DarcsWiki/DeveloperTips You're right that we should probably say something about tabs, but on the other hand with the test suite checking for it gets found right away for most people :) And also, discouraging tabs seems to be common in the Haskell community so I think it's assumed for many darcs contributors. If we added a HACKING file my proposal is have it point at the above links and add something to the FAQ that shows how to disable tabs in both Vim and Emacs. Thoughts?

New submission from Dave Love <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I found that the test suite in the unstable branch complains at tabs in the source. It might be useful to have a HACKING (or something) file with guidance on that sort of thing. You could tell Emacs users to use (add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook '(lambda () (setq indent-tabs-mode nil))) or use <URL:http://www.loveshack.ukfsn.org/emacs/dir-locals.el> or <URL:http://www.loveshack.ukfsn.org/emacs/indent-tabs-maybe.el> to set indent-tabs-mode locally. It could actually be set in local variables in the Haskell source files, and I guess something similar can be done for anyone cursed with vi. ---------- messages: 1169 nosy: EricKow, droundy, fx, tommy status: unread title: guidance on hacking would be useful ____________________________________ Darcs issue tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.darcs.net/issue330> ____________________________________ _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
