Hi, I'm afraid the answer boils down to "don't do that" (copy and paste patch bundles)

The differences in whitespace are indeed significant. In this particular case, darcs parsed the bundle all the way to the bits after 'Context: '. The file format uses an initial whitespace before each line of the patch log, which avoids ambiguities stemming from patch logs with things that look like the darcs file format. Entering thought experiment space: if by chance the Context was fine, then (by rights) you should have be saved from applying a bad patch through a patch bundle hash failure. If you defeated this by removing the patch bundle hash, you might successfully apply the patches but then run into trouble working with your collaborator later on because you would have applied a subtly different patch but with the same id. So avoid copy+pasting, and while I'm at it, don't fight the hash failures... :-) -- Eric Kow <http://erickow.com>
