The source of problems was about hidden conflicts, right? It's no longer a problem in darcs2, right? It's mainly a common use case when can no longer use amend-record. I think that's also a great tool to temporarily revert a patch without having two repositories. Moreover this kind of operation is waited when one know that patches must be invertible. -- Nicolas Pouillard aka Ertai _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
