You need to learn of the '-a' argument for 'darcs record' :-) With Git, I can stage selected changes and subsequently commit them, while in Mercurial I have not found any comparable feature. True, but I still don't quite understand the point of the staging area. I've never found a good use for it. In short, I don't think the staging area is the feature that makes git a better option than Mercurial :-) For Mercurial you have patch queues which you can use in a way that allows you to do stuff similarly to the staging area of git. /M -- Magnus Therning(OpenPGP: 0xAB4DFBA4) magnus＠therning．org Jabber: magnus＠therning．org http://therning.org/magnus identi.ca|twitter: magthe signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature

In short, I don't think the staging area is the feature that makes git a better option than Mercurial :-) If you use it, you'll need it. :) Short time ago, I didn't like the stage. I didn't want to add every file I want to commit. But then I realized, that I really like to do many changes and then group them into small commits. git commits only the contents in stage. You can have some changes of a file staged and others not. I hadn't used git for a long time, until it was a requirement for my master thesis. Now, I'm really a fanboy and the group's git guru. git does really support my way of coding. BUT perhaps I've changed my style of coding to match git? Who knows. … -- Gruß, Johannes http://hehejo.de signature.asc Description: PGP signature

C Anthony [mobile] Finally someone who doesn't use his mobile as excuse for top posting :) I'm not very experienced as code, I pretty much just started my first own project of a size to speak of, and I started using git. I think using a VCS alone can change your workflow. I feel bad each time I have to write a commit message after I have made a bunch of unrelated changes. That alone might, with time, lead me to concentrate on a single thing. On the other hand I might learn how to use the staging area and keep hacking on stuff as I see it. I haven't found my workflow yet, but I won't switch back to no VCS for sure. -- Philipp -- Wir stehen selbst enttäuscht und sehn betroffen / Den Vorhang zu und alle Fragen offen.

[arch-general] The principle behind MSN Yahoo invisible scanners?
Go to google.com and search for MSN Yahoo invisible scanners. You'll find a big list. So what's the principle of their working? I'm thinking of writing a pidgin plugin to catch invisible buddies. -- Regards, Nilesh Govindarajan Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/nilesh.gr Twitter: http://twitter.com/nileshgr Website: http://www.itech7.com VPS Hosting: http://www.itech7.com/a/vps

[arch-general] ati\kms\kernel problems
So, such a problem. With 2.6.35(and, it starts from 2.6.34.3) with enabled KMS(ati videocard, HD4570) i can't run X with both xorg 1.8 and xorg 1.9. Now, i have mesa,libgl,ati-dri,xorg-* packages, xf86-video-ati from testing, 2.6.35.4 from here to and still nothing. With enabled KMS screen just freezes at startx(i'm using ion3, no DE) and that's it. No messages in log. No troubles in dmesg too, KMS starts normaly. Software versions: kernel: 2.6.35.4 (testing) X: xorg 1.9(testing) drivers: xf86-video-ati 6.13.1-2 (testing) libgl: 7.8.2-3 (testing) mesa: 7.8.2-3 (testing) -- With best regards, Waylls
