New submission from simonpj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

Dear Darcs folk

I have a partial repository for GHC in a local directory.

I do a "darcs get" from that directory, but omitting --partial.

I get a deeply obscure error message (see below).  When I do a "darcs get 
--partial" it works ok.

Would you consider arranging that if you "darcs get" from a partial repository, 
it just works (getting only a partial repository of course)?  Indeed, earlier 
"darcs gets" seemed to work, even lacking --partial.  I have no clue what has 
changed.  I can give you the repo if you want.

The repository is OK if I say "darcs check" on it.

Thanks

Simon

$ darcs get //cam-01-srv/dfsroot/users/simonpj/darcs/dmd-anal-branch
Usage: ssh [options] host [command]
Options:
  -l user     Log in using this user name.
  -n          Redirect input from /dev/null.
  -A          Enable authentication agent forwarding.
  -a          Disable authentication agent forwarding.
  -X          Enable X11 connection forwarding.
  -x          Disable X11 connection forwarding.
  -i file     Identity for public key authentication (default: ~/.ssh/identity)
  -t          Tty; allocate a tty even if command is given.
  -T          Do not allocate a tty.
  -v          Verbose; display verbose debugging messages.
              Multiple -v increases verbosity.
  -V          Display version number only.
  -P          Don't allocate a privileged port.
  -q          Quiet; don't display any warning messages.
  -f          Fork into background after authentication.
  -e char     Set escape character; ``none'' = disable (default: ~).
  -c cipher   Select encryption algorithm: ``3des'', ``blowfish''
  -m macs     Specify MAC algorithms for protocol version 2.
  -p port     Connect to this port.  Server must be on the same port.
  -L listen-port:host:port   Forward local port to remote address
  -R listen-port:host:port   Forward remote port to local address
              These cause ssh to listen for connections on a port, and
              forward them to the other side by connecting to host:port.
  -C          Enable compression.
  -N          Do not execute a shell or command.
  -g          Allow remote hosts to connect to forwarded ports.
  -1          Force protocol version 1.
  -2          Force protocol version 2.
  -4          Use IPv4 only.
  -6          Use IPv6 only.
  -o 'option' Process the option as if it was read from a configuration file.
  -s          Invoke command (mandatory) as SSH2 subsystem.
