This is actually something I've been known to waffle on, but I do lean towards just trusting the hash. And definitely having shared storage is a real (and intended) bonus. It also makes shared cross-repository storage both easier and more robust (e.g. if you have two similar repositories, they should be able to share any identical files). -- David Roundy http://www.darcs.net _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
