While I'm not dead set against moving to Darcs, can someone please tell me how it will make Slime hacking better?
A real workflow example or two would be good.
some quick toughts results in these:
no need for handshaping the ChangeLog
no need for cp -r slime slime.foo.bar to separate unrelated changes if you are experimenting with something that needs further testing and is not yet meant to be committed. also no need to move patches between those slime.foo.bar dirs to have a local merged HEAD for daily use and for testing all the pending changes.
darcs rollback (plus darcs move and easy branching, but they are not that important)
no more hand-editing and mailing of cvs diffs (you can even have a slime_public branch that can accept patches through http)
