I don't know if many people played with my 'HTTP' submission feature for
darcs, but one of the interesting things I did with it was to have the
submission script actually perform some basic lint such as checking for
trailing whitespace before accepting the patch. (my server side
submission script, not darcs itself)
On that subject, when I originally implemented the REST (I think is the
buzzword) patch submission feature, there were a few competing http
implementations so I only did it for the native haskell version as an
initial case. What is the state of things nowadays? I'd like to bring
the patch up to the state of the art.
