I see. Thanks for the explanation! After reading the manual some time ago, I had the impression that "darcs push" will somehow fallback to "darcs send" in such cases. That's not true, is it? I have to use explicitly the "send" command, haven't I? > This does rely on having a working email setup locally, which is > becoming a bit less common with the move to gmail etc. We're looking at > adding general support for submitting patches over http instead, but > it's not all there yet. As for me, I feel that it's my problem to figure out how to send the patches. So, I've received the answer that there is a way to submit changes to the wiki from the local clone. > If you don't have a working local email setup, the workaround is to use > darcs send -o filename.dpatch and then manually send the file to > [email protected]. Should it be in the message body or an attachment? I have run "darcs send --dry-run" in my local clone of darcs-wiki to figure out which address the patches must be sent to, and actually the address is [email protected] (not the one you quoted): [imz@localhost darcs-wiki]$ darcs send --dry-run Creating patch to "http://darcs.net/darcs-wiki";... Patch bundle would be sent to: [email protected] Would send the following changes: Wed Jun 19 01:51:50 MSK 2013 Ivan Zakharyaschev <[email protected]> * tip: Invoking Emacs functions as external merge/diff tools. Preparing the args for an Emacs function in a shell script (as it is done in the manual) is ugly. Here I show how do it with Elisp code. Making no changes: this is a dry run. [imz@localhost darcs-wiki]$ fgrep darcs-users -r _darcs/ [imz@localhost darcs-wiki]$ (Probably, it gets this information from the web, because grepping the local _darcs/ hasn't revealed that it is stored locally.) Ok, I was worried that choosing this path for submitting changes to the wiki would require additional attention of a reviewer, which means more unnecessary human work, because the changes done through the web interface are anyway accepted automatically. Are the patches for darcs-wiki sent to darcs-users@ processed automatically somehow?
