I think a hashed inventory will go a long way towards eliminating this sort of problem, and I've been talking with Isaac Jones about a halfs (which is currently unreleased software, but is basically a filesystem implemented in haskell, which can be backed by a file) based pristine cache. These two changes (both of which are just waiting on someone with time and energy to implement them) will go a long way towards reducing the ease with which darcs repositories can be corrupted. -- David Roundy _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
