I seem to remember this was under discussion, how to make the last regrets prompt less annoying. I'd suggest we avoid going down the route of making this configurable just to please people who both find it annoying and are willing to configure their darcs, and instead focus on the problem at hand.
It's one of these seeming rock-and-hard-places problems: how else do we offer the ability to revisit the very last choice (not to mention the IMHO less important review function)? I still hold that [dq] is better for last regrets than accepting [yn], precisely for the reason that it's easy to accidentally say yn when you don't mean it. (And that UIs should be designed to forgive users like me who tend to tell the computer things they don't really mean like “yeah yeah, ok I really do want to delete that file… oh wait, no! what was I saying?! Argh!”) On 1 July 2013 13:56, Benjamin Franksen <benjamin.frank...@helmholtz-berlin.de> wrote: > This regularly happens to me lately: > > franksen@tiber: ...support/seq/branch-2-2 > darcs push > Mon Jul 1 14:37:59 CEST 2013 benjamin.frank...@helmholtz-berlin.de > * top level Makefile: pdf and docs no longer variables, restructured extra > targets > Shall I push this patch?
