I'm one of those "no gratuitous aliases!" types, or at least "let's have a policy, and document them". Pro: "status" looks like it would smooth the way for a lot of new/infrequent darcs users. And it's consistent with the current de facto policy since we already have these hidden aliases: unadd, rm, mv, commit, resolve, log, list, query, transferMode, unpull, clone, gzcrcs. Con: you don't want to have to maintain docs/tests/examples covering both commands. There'd be a chance that "whatsnew" gets diluted or deprecated at some point down the road. The code changes look simple and good. So I guess I'm a +0.9 for this one. __________________________________ Darcs bug tracker <b...@darcs.net> <http://bugs.darcs.net/patch164> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list darcs-users@darcs.net http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
