The thing is, if you've used commands like darcs add, darcs mv or darcs replace and you hanven't recorded yet, you will lose that information. Hence, we don't have it as a flag, as it would be a half-broken flag. That's why i would advise you to either use diff between the two repositories, or use record.
Remember that darcs commutation is nearly magic, but that you need not to be afraid of creating repositories. So after a good night's sleep (sorry if I have been unclear in yesterday's messages), the reasonable solution is to use get to make a local copy of the remote repo, record your changes, then pull them into your copy of the remote repo and do darcs changes. (And look at conflicts). Maybe we need to make it clear in the manual that with a global cache, having a lot of repos living for a short time in /tmp is actually a reasonable thing.
