I'm sure this must be a VFAQ, but... There seems to be universal agreement that Darcs is a nice idea, but is unsuitable for "real" projects. Even GHC keeps talking about getting rid of Darcs. Can anybody tell me what the "problems" with Darcs actually are?
I believe the biggest problem was (i.e. when migration started) that there is no big-name-hosting supporting darcs. When code.haskell.org went down people were cut off from code. Regards
