Hi,

I have some darcs repos I created, and I seem to have been rather free
in changing my author entry for different patches.  I want to change
them all to have one permanent author name I choose for myself.

Will it be OK to gunzip/edit/gzip them? Is there a quicker way of doing it?

No, it is not allowed to change such information in the patches, at least, not by simply edit the patches themselves: the author info is used to compute the "patchid", so you cannot just change the author.

There's no quicker way than the "unrecord/record". Beware that even those operations are not enough once one patch has left your repo (has been pushed some where else outside your master repo).

ciao, lele.
