Hi friends!
I love Haskell very much. So, I'm very interested in using Darcs. Is there some documentation explaining diffrences between Darcs and Git. Is there something that makes Darcs more robust rathen that Git. Does Darcs have some Emacs support (something like `magit`)?
And one other question. Currently, I have no collaborators and use Git majorly myself to have version control, e.g. to revert some bad code, to have a nice log with code diffs and comments, and etc. But in future I will need something like GitHub for collaboration, is there a good solution for Darcs' hub already?
Hello Geraldus, I am a happy darcs user. I enjoy its basic philosophy much more than git one (patches vs. branches [1]); I do feel the user experience to be much smoother, too. There are darcs hosting services, one of them being darcs hub [2]. Or you can just upload the repository to your webspace and -presto- you are ready. I work like this [3] alongside with some barebone issue tracker [4] and I am pretty happy.
