In this case (too?) worse is better. The problem is not the pristine cache gets mangled -- it can always be rebuilt -- the problem is we don't detect it's mangled, and use an invalid cache which records invalid patches, without the user realizing it for maybe a long time. Data bases have checksums to detect this. -- Tommy Pettersson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ darcs-devel mailing list darcs-devel@darcs.net http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-devel
