The most likely culprit is if you're running darcs apply from a mailer. Mailers generally modify the umask before piping to an external command. I have an entry like macro pager A "<pipe-entry>(umask 022; darcs apply --no-test --repodir ~/darcs) in my .muttrc to work around this "feature" in mutt. -- David Roundy
