Hello everyone,

Finally! Simon Marlow's plan[1] for moving from CVS to darcs for fptools, GHC, etc. is happening. Thanks to some feedback from him and the author of Tailor, as well as some free time finally, I've been able to convert things from CVS to darcs according to the plan.

So, the first phase is to have live, updated darcs mirrors of CVS repos as appropriate. We now have that.

Please feel free to darcs get --partial any of these. (Trust me, you *REALLY* want to use --partial. You'd be downloading over 13,000 patches otherwise on some of these.)

http://cvs.haskell.org/darcs/ghc GHC HEAD http://cvs.haskell.org/darcs/ghc.ghc-6.4 GHC ghc-6-4-branch http://cvs.haskell.org/darcs/libraries libraries dir from fptools, HEAD http://cvs.haskell.org/darcs/libraries.ghc-6.4 libraries dir from fptools, ghc-6-4-branch http://cvs.haskell.org/darcs/nofib nofib dir from fptools, HEAD (there were no commits on ghc-6-4-branch for nofib) http://cvs.haskell.org/darcs/testsuite testsuite dir from fptools, HEAD http://cvs.haskell.org/darcs/testsuite.ghc-6.4 testsuite dir from fptools, ghc-6-4-branch

Please note that you cannot pull patches between branches. This is because it is not really possible to have an automated CVS to darcs conversion that preserves enough information to do so. However, once the 6.4 branches go away, this will become nicely possible with future branches.

Also please note that these repos are READ ONLY for now. Nobody will be accepting darcs patches until Simon (or someone) gives the word.

These will all be updating daily as soon as I get around to writing a cron job.
