I think it's a brilliant idea, I had the idea myself some months ago. I just haven't had time to sit down and try writing the code. It's a pain to setup a separate email account for each darcs repo, and not all of my developers have email setup correctly on their desktop. It would be *much* easier to be able to use libcurl to POST gpg signed patches via darcs.cgi or just some random cgi. darcs' email patch support is just a shell script that calls darcs apply. If you use the same approach by POST'ing GPG signed patches, a small CGI script in any language should suffice. If you write this, I will use it. If you don't write this, I'll write it sometime in the next six months when I get around to it. Please write this so I can be lazy! -- Shae Matijs Erisson - http://www.ScannedInAvian.com/ - Sockmonster once said: You could switch out the unicycles for badgers, and the game would be the same. _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
