Hey you guys just improved our FAQ! * http://wiki.darcs.net/FAQ#how-do-i-rollback-a-patch-that-something-else-depends-on See also * http://wiki.darcs.net/FAQ#darcs-offers-me-unexpected-match-results * http://bugs.darcs.net/issue337 Heh, team effort too, Simon, Ben [1] and Ashley [2] asked about rollback; Petr noticed that this comes up a lot, Ganesh supplied some of the words for the answer (which I stole) and I played Eric-the-Search-Engine. I'm pleased that this really is an FA-Q and not just a Q we imagine one might A (that said, the fact that there even is a Q in the first place means we've gotten something wrong in the UI).
