Darcs is currently hard wired to put the tar file in the repo root dir. I don't think that would be hard to change though. The Dist command could also do with some options to supply extra flags to tar and gzip, and to suppress tar and gzip altogether, just extract a plain file tree and run dist hook on it. There are already wishlist items for some of these features. One question is how to tell darcs where to put the tar file. Perhaps the --dist-name option could divide the distname into a directory part and a base name part, and make sure the tar file (or whatever) ends up at the right place. Would other darcs users find this intuitive? -- Tommy Pettersson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
