I always disliked the fact that the darcs metadirectory isn't hidden. I think that at least on POSIX systems, something like .darcs would be better than _darcs. > Alas. It's legacy, so I don't imagine it changing. Why shouldn't it change? A future darcs could create .darcs directories while still accepting _darcs directories. Well, one should think carefully about whether .darcs would be a good name since .darcs is already used for per-user configuration. Maybe something like .darcs-info would be better. > AfC > Sydney Best wishes, Wolfgang _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
