Sounds like we should be doing something like we do for git & hg. If the commit message is longer than 1 line, show the text to the user and let them munge it accordingly. Then we can use --logfile to feed the message to darcs so it properly handles the patch name (first line) and long description (subsequent lines). -- James GPG Key: 1024D/61326D40 2003-09-02 James Vega <[email protected]>
