Another option might be to record a dummy patch, using --ask-deps to
make it depend on the patches in question.  (Ideally, this could be a
tag, but darcs does not appear to support --ask-deps for tags -- at
least in the version 1.0.5 which I use).

The advantage of doing it this way is that the patch history will be
preserved¹, and that it is robust if the patches have been
distributed.

I think the --ask-deps on a tag is closest to what I want to do. I don't really want to try and manage different versions of the repos.

Since you cannot add a description to a tag a dummy patch might actually work out better.

So how do the darcs developers (or other darcs users) handle this? When you are working on some feature for darcs that takes a while and involves many patches what do you do when you want to roll it into the release tree?
