Hi,

I have a couple of branches of ghc off of HEAD.

I found that I had some difficulty _finding_ my patch submissions after
weeks of 'darcs_all pull -a'.  And I understand that one complaint is the
need to create 'megapatches'.

How is this flow:

1) 'darcs shunt' all patches originating from this repository to a waiting
area
2) 'darcs pull' new patches from GHC HQ
3) 'darcs unshunt' from a holding area onto the updated repo

Essentially we do not discard patches as with 'unrecord', instead we create
a sub-branch and reapply each patch (with conflict resolution).

If I were to have a say, I would stay with darcs, but as someone has pointed
out, the technology is the compiler, not the VCS.
