  You might want to look into other version control systems that don't
try to be as clever as darcs.  I found it to be fairly easy to convert
my darcs repositories to Mercurial with only a little flailing around;
I've heard good things about git too.  Compared to fighting your tool or
paying thousands of dollars for someone to fix it, it might be a good
alternative.

  I know how attached we coders get to our tools, and in all other ways
darcs is a pretty awesome one, but sometimes you have to accept that the
negatives outweigh the positives and let go of it.

  (just MHO, take it for what it's worth)
