Hello,
I have a darcs repository replicated on a few encrypted volumes. I
would not like the data in this repository to ever be stored
unencrypted, except in RAM. I have noticed that there are a few times
when darcs stores the data in unencrypted parts of my filesystem:
- Patches and other things are stored under ~/.darcs/cache. For now,
I've stopped this by creating a regular file at ~/.darcs/cache on all
of my hosts, preventing the directory from being created.
- Data is stored temporarily under DARCS_TMPDIR. I plan to address
this by making DARCS_TMPDIR point to an encrypted or RAM-only volume.
Questions: Are there any other leaks I should plug? Is there a
better approach? Is this a hopeless pursuit, and if so, would it
still be hopeless if my whole filesystem were encrypted instead of
just the places where I keep my repositories?
Thanks for your time!
