Don't use the predist.sh method for development work. Check out, build
and install libtu and libextl separately. If you have, however, run
predist.sh, you can either
1. Record the changes in just some files by passing the names of those
files to record. Use 'darcs whatsnew -s' to view what files were changed.
The files modified/deleted by predist.sh are libs.mk, libs.mk.dist,
system.mk and predist.sh itself.
2. 'darcs revert' the files that predist.sh modifies. (Libtu and libextl
will now be expected to be installed on the system.)
