way to pull down everything that could possibly be needed? But from the way the wiki page is sounded, it doesn't sound that way.
Running "darcs check", "darcs changes -s" or "darcs changes foobar" for instance would ensure that you've got a complete repository.
That's good to know. I would second the suggestion that some others here have made: that this (a full get) be the default behavior. It will certainly come as a big surprise to both prior users of Darcs, and users of other DVCS, if it isn't. And one high-profile data loss as a result will be a big black eye for the Darcs community. Perhaps darcs get --partial should activate this new behavior? That would be a very logical change, IMHO. -- John
