Probably because none considered A as an effective solution. While darcs can tell me more things, I'm still left in one of the 2 cases I was in before: 1. Be annoyed that I have to type in the email with every new repository 2. Set ~/.darcs/author and find myself that I used the wrong identity for some new project. -- Dan _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
