Sent a patch adding "Patch-salt: " to the appropriate list, which was interesting to search for, not having too great of a sense of darcs' repository organization. > Also, RFC 822 specifies extension fields have names starting with "X-". > Perhaps a similar convention could be used here?

Well, Patch-salt isn't really an extension field to darcs as the proposal is to make it standard, by default, always on in darcs. On the other hand, extending the current ignore support to support a Regex such as "^X\-([\w\-]+): " might provide a useful extension area for third party tools to use (for example "X-Tailor-Something: "). -- --Max Battcher-- http://worldmaker.net _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
