Unfortunately, this is not completely true. This only works as long as you freeze the diffing algorithm. Any subtle change in the differ while using the above representation will introduce ever so subtle merge bugs that will be (basically) impossible to track down. > However, for doing darcsy stuff, you'd really want the patches > themselves.
