The way I do it is by using darcs to manage a repository on my computer, and using rsync (with --delete) to place it on a public server. Other people who work on the project have their own trees and send me patches using "darcs send" (I could also pull from their trees if they're public). > >>I use Thunderbird.

You can also pipe it to "darcs apply" on standard input. Daniel
