Quick question: GHC's current darcs-all adds --partial by default, and the
user has to override this with --complete if this is wanted. Given my
sometimes rather strange experiences with partial repos (darcs doesn't find a
patch, "darcs changes" is silent, etc.), I've switched to --complete for all
my repos. What do others think? Should we leave "--partial" as the default or
should we add nothing special (resulting in darcs' default, i.e. --complete)?
--partial is fine if all you want to do is build the sources and occasionally
pull to get the latest changes, which I think is the common case. If you also
want to make changes, then we recommend you should use --complete. I think it's
fine to leave --partial as the default. I've just updated our recommendations
about --partial on the wiki, though.
Cheers,
Simon
