A missing _darcs/format should be fine and implies the default repo format. I'm not sure what an empty _darcs/format file is parsed as; it's supposed to contain some repo format information. > Then try darcs send again from the local machine: > Can't understand repository format: The requested URL repo/.git/darcs-format > was not found on this server. > > I decided to create that too, and got: > > You need to be in a repository directory to run this command. > > I was.

There are no significant changes between 1.0.7pre1 and 1.0.7 as far as I can tell. > Any suggestions? I can't reproduce this bug. Since the Cygwin version is the only darcs involved in the Send action, the bug seems to be related to that version, and something with remote file transfer. I think you should file a bug report on bugs.darcs.net. -- Tommy Pettersson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
