Hmm: how about this proposal? http://bugs.darcs.net/issue1613 People use revision control systems for different things. Darcs users use it to keep track of patches; Git and users of other DVCSes often use it to keep track of repo history. It would be nice if a future version of Darcs offered the ability to track history type information as well. The idea is that given a patch, people would be able to ask Darcs questions of it like: - who applied this patch? - when was it applied to what repository? - who signed off on it? - when was this merged with branch foo? - has this patch been tested? (see David's --tag-on-tested feature) - what version of the this patch are we looking at? I imagine that the way to implement this would be to have some sort of 'optional metadata' layer of things that are not really part and parcel of the patch, that don't affect its identity or commutation properties, but which can somehow been shipped around. -- Eric Kow <http://www.nltg.brighton.ac.uk/home/Eric.Kow> PGP Key ID: 08AC04F9
