Hi all

I just re-stumbled across the darcs Rosetta Stone[1]. What I hadn't noticed before was the section "Recommendations for unification":

        • rename get to clone
        • rename changes to log
        • rename record to commit (DVCS are popular enough now)
        • rename rollback to new "repeal"

These changes sound sensible to me. (Plus `darcs uncommit`?) Is there an active effort to make darcs more consistent with other DVCSes? Regardless of which came first, git terminology is becoming ubiquitous. After showing an existing git user darcs, and noticing his surprise at `darcs annotate -p`, I think there may be a strong case for a language reform.

WDYAT?
