[darcs-users] darcs patch theory

2008-09-08 Thread Ian Lynagh
Dear patch theory enthusiasts, As most of you know, I've been working on a patch theory for darcs. The new theory is similar to darcs 2's, but simpler, and should solve the correctness issues. There is now an implementation, minidarcs, of my proposed new theory. It only implements a subset of

By the way, the next release of buildbot is going to come out soon, and it is fixed to no longer send false alarm squawks when buildslaves disconnect and reconnect. I will be busy this week with a new feature for Tahoe (the decentralized secure filesystem), but next week I will upgrade the

I'm fast-tracking this one. I'm willing to accept a little mess in our test suites if this is what it takes for us to have a useful Windows buildslave. This does not imply any sort of official Cygwin support (e.g. when triaging incoming bug requests). Mon Sep 8 15:06:40 BST 2008 Eric Kow
