[cl-debian] reset of most darcs repositories
Hello, After playing round a bit with tailor I decided to convert most of my repositories that have cvs and svn based upstreams to use tailor. I will not simply import the new cvs release, but actually convert every cvs commit into a darcs record, thus giving greater granularity and smaller patches. Thus resulting in fewer conflicts and hanging darcs. There are a few downsides: - the tailor stuff does not seem to be included in the darcs archive. I'm trying to work something out for that - I synced to HEAD, so most 'upstream' versions shifted. This is most noticeable for sbcl which is now at a in-between version. This should get resolved on the next release (end of this month). - I could not get clisp to import correctly. I kept getting killed after using several hundred megabytes of memory, so clisp is still using the old 'get the release, add, record and tag' treatment, until I can convince them to start using darcs :-). - You guys have to re-get my archives Groetjes, Peter -- signature -at- pvaneynd.mailworks.org http://www.livejournal.com/users/pvaneynd/ "God, root, what is difference?"

Let me see if I understand. - Your main repositories are still darcs, right ? - Are you packaging unstable (non-released) versions ? Thank you. -- Pupeno <pupeno@pupeno.com> http://pupeno.com
