Perhaps `darcs show patch ...`?
WDYT?
IIRC, I, or someone else, has made a similar suggestion in the past:
keep ``darcs annotate -p`` as is, but provide ``darcs show patch``
as a nice, discoverable alternative. (Just as ``darcs show tags`` is
nicer than ``darcs changes --tags .`` + parsing.)
+1 on this.
I didn't know about annotate -p, but now that I did learn about it, I
find it a bit confusing. I expect annotate to show me who did what
changes to a certain file, not to show a patch content.
What's even more confusing, is that if I specify both a patch name and
a file name, the patch is completely ignored and I get the full
annotation for that file (even if the filename I provide is one
affected by the patch I specify):
darcs annotate --patch "Foobar" filename
