Hello

I have just tested an idea I haven't thought of before: publishing a repo by only uploading the_darcs directory of it. This means going a bit further than darcs get --no-pristine, thus having no uncompressed and readily usable version of the sources online at all. I mainly did it for saving bandwidth and upload time not so much for disk space (16M _darcs only vs 94M full)

It seems to work, keeping up-to-date is I hope just a matter of rsyncing, but I am curious if anyone sees possible problems with such an approach.

If this worked there could be a darcs push variant which created such non-working-dir, repository-only repos without the need for server side darcs as applying would not be needed.

thanks
Jani
