Our company uses Serena ChangeMan for their main version control system. I don't like ChangeMan, but it handles the CRLF issue invisibly. Someone else on this list stated that Subversion has an option to handle this issue automatically as well. Is this on the ToDo list for Darcs?
Ralph below suggested a prehook option. I only saw posthook options available. I assume that the way to simulate a prehook would be to build a wrapper program around a command with a similar name. example "darcswhatsnew" This solution is flawed though, as the developers will accidentally use the real darcs command as they are using "darcs COMMAND" for everything else. Therefore, I believe that "prehook" is another option that Darcs really could use. ---- >I'd much rather have a pre-record hook that could run any program >to alter the source before it gets recorded.
