Hi, Benedikt!
Thanks for your reply clarifying these things.

From: Benedikt Huber <benedikt.hu...@gmail.com>
the hub.darcs.net repository is a mirror of
http://code.haskell.org/language-c (the official upstream) that was created
to simplify contributing.
Conversion to darcs-2 was not straightforward IIRC, and the update of the
repository did not work out.That's why code.haskell.org is still darcs-1.
To be able to push to hub.darcs.net, I've done the conversion with "darcs
convert darcs-2" with the help of the advices from darcs developers --
after a "darcs optimize reorder", and the resulting darcs-2 repo had no
problems with pushing to (a clone of) your darcs-2 repo at hub.darcs.net.
(Although one thing that still appears strange to me is that some tags
were lost in my result of the conversion, but not in your darcs-2 repo.
I've described all this in the previous messages in this thread.)
Anyway, now, this darcs-2 mirror of the upstream code.haskell.org darcs-1
repo is at http://hub.darcs.net/imz/language-c_hackage
It is "compatible" with your darcs-2 repo at hub.darcs.net, and compared
to it has 2 extra patches. These are the last two changes in the
"official upstream" darcs-1 repo (they are from December 2014).

I've been interested in hacking language-c library a bit for my needs.
(If
it turns out useful and successful, I'll tell about it.)
And I've cloned the repo listed at
https://hackage.haskell.org/package/language-c-0.4.7 , namely:
http://code.haskell.org/language-c
Apart from my special hacks, I've also fixed some typos and so on.
But then I discovered that if I want to publish them on hub.darcs.net
, I
need a darcs-2 repo, and the initial one which I used for cloning is
a darcs-1 repo.
I could do the conversion to darcs-2, but I read that it is not
reproducible: run several times on the same set of patches it will
give
different results.
As I've discovered also a language-c repo at hub.darcs.net which looks
like an upstream repo: http://hub.darcs.net/visq/language-c , I'm in
doubt
whether I should continue making my patches against the darcs-1 repo
which
is said to be upstream at hackage or against
http://hub.darcs.net/visq/language-c whichis not officially declared
as
the upstream but looks more fresh.
..if I want to be able to send some of my patches upstream.
Best regards,
Ivan
