"Sittampalam, Ganesh"
Obviously source code documentation would be nice, but why is it "show-stopping"?
I consider it "show-stopping" in the sense that I keep having people on
#gentoo-haskell asking me why they can't compile darcs 2.3.1 because
that error comes up, and I have to explain to either disable
documentation or downgrade Cabal (if they're still using Ivan Lazar Miljenovic wrote: I really feel that bug 1720 [1] is a show-stopping bug for darcs,
especially since it means that building Haddock for darcs with
GHC-6.12.* isn't possible. [1] http://bugs.darcs.net/issue1720 I tried to make a fix, but didn't know enough of how darcs is
documented to be able to do anything. Reinier Lamers Hi all, The darcs team would like to announce the immediate availability of
darcs 2.4 beta 1. darcs 2.4 will contain many improvements and
bugfixes compared to darcs 2.3.1. Highlights are the fast index-based
diffing which is now used by all darcs commands, and the interactive
hunk-splitting in darcs record. This beta is your chance to
test-drive
these improvements and make darcs even better. If you have installed the Haskell Platform or cabal-install, you can
install this beta release by doing: $ cabal update
$ cabal install --reinstall darcs-beta Alternatively, you can download the tarball from
http://darcs.net/releases/darcs-2.3.98.1.tar.gz , and build it by
hand
as explained in the README file. A list of important changes since 2.3.1 is as follows (please let me
know if there's something you miss!): * Use fast index-based diffing everywhere (Petr)
* Interactive patch splitting (Ganesh)
* An 'optimize --upgrade' option to convert to hashed format
in-place (Eric)
* Hunk matching (Kamil Dworakowski, tat.wright)
* Progress reporting is no longer deceptive (Roman Plášil)
* A 'remove --recursive' option to remove a directory tree from
revision control (Roman Plášil)
* A '--remote-darcs' flag for pushing to a host where darcs isn't
called darcs
* Many miscellaneous Windows improvements (Salvatore, Petr and
others)
* 'darcs send' now mentions the repository name in the email body
(Joachim)
* Handle files with boring names in the repository correctly
(Petr)
* Fix parsing of .authorspellings file (Tomáš Caitt)
* Various sane new command-line option names (Florent)
* Remove the '--checkpoint' option (Petr)
* Use external libraries for all UTF-8 handling (Eric, Reinier)
* Use the Haskell zlib package exclusively for compression (Petr) Kind Regards,
the darcs release manager,
Reinier Lamers
