The easy fix (until darcs is mended) is to set the environment variable DARCS_TMPDIR to some directory for temporary files, or to create the directory \tmp. In either case, darcs will create its darcs-ssh directory inside that directory. All other temporary files used by darcs will also be created in that directory. Another way should be to use the flag --disable-ssh-cm (preferably from the .darcs/defaults file). This disables the feature that creates the darcs-ssh directory, but now darcs can not multiplex transactions with ssh. But if your ssh does not support control master, darcs couldn't do so anyway. Unfortunately there have been problems reported that --disable-ssh-cm not always works from the defaults file. -- Tommy Pettersson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.abridgegame.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
