That's correct. I think first they were left for debugging purposes. But then there was a slight usefulness in case of hard links. If you pull the patch back again, and it is unchanged by the commutations, darcs will reuse the hard link instead of copying the patch. There was a suggestion for a --clean option to 'darcs optimize' to remove stale patch files, but I don't know if it is still relevant for darcs2. -- Tommy Pettersson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
