  $ mv _darcs/current _darcs/pristine

Yes, that's all there is to it right now.

The other change is that Darcs now checks for a file called
``_darcs/format'', which contains data about the format of a
repository.  If this file is absent, or empty (which is currently the
case), the repository is in the baseline format; in the future, it
will contain information about which extensions to the baseline format
are necessary in order to grok a given repo.

This will allow us to make seamless transitions in the future, with
older version of Darcs giving you a friendly message asking you to
upgrade if you attempt to use a newer repository.
