With the every-branch-is-a-copy-of-the-repo philosophy I find it easy enough to directly use whatever side-by-side directory diff tool I have at hand (such as WinMerge or GNU diff), sometimes telling it to ignore the _darcs sub-directories. With a little bit of work you can get a diff tool to try to work directly with the remote copy, but it is often easy enough to do a quick ``darcs get --lazy`` of the remote branch (particularly with hashed/darcs-2 repos and a primed cache). I've never felt I do it often enough that I need a shortcut command in darcs itself for this task, but your mileage may naturally vary. More often than not it seems that I can get all I need from individual patch diffs. -- --Max Battcher-- http://worldmaker.net _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
