New submission from David Roundy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: I get the following problem when running changes on a remote repo, if I'm not currently in a darcs repository:
$ darcs changes --repo=http://darcs.net darcs failed: Not a repository: http://darcs.net (Failed to create temporary file darcs: permission denied (Permission denied)) I suspect that what's happening is that darcs is setting the working directory to the root directory in a naive attempt to put ourselves into the main directory of a repository, and my user doesn't have write permissions there for creating a temporary file. If I run this command in a darcs repository, there's no problem. And by the way, I haven't looked at the source code for this at all (and am not sure when I'll have time to look into this). I only tested this using: $ darcs --exact-version darcs compiled on Oct 31 2006, at 01:58:00 # configured Mon Oct 9 15:12:44 EDT 2006 ./configure --no-create --no-recursion Context: [TAG 1.0.9rc1 Tommy Pettersson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>**20061008175207] so I don't know if this bug might be fixed already (although I doubt it).
