I'm also not glad with darcs behaviour about non-added files. You can try darcs whatsnew --look-for-adds David Roundy's philosophy is that you must add a test compilation with 'darcs setprefs' anyway and this one reveals forgotten files. > 4) hg commit -m "message" > this commits my changes locally.

Since it is so slow on merging ready patches, you better merge uncrecorded changes. _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
