In the case above (and in all of the cases which we try), all of the patches in the branch will appear after (order-wise in the 'changes' output) all of the main repo patches (iirc). What situations would not cause this "prefix" behavior? thanks, -lev _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
