[cl-darcs-devel] diff-repo

[Magnus Henoch]

I have added the function diff-repo, which calculates the patch
between the pristine tree and your working copy.  If you have a
checked-out repository recent enough to have a _darcs/pristine
directory (version 0.1.0 qualifies), try something like:

(with-open-file (f "/tmp/the-patch" :direction :output :element-type '(unsigned-byte 8))
  (dolist (patch (darcs:diff-repo "/path/to/repo/"))
    (darcs::write-patch patch f)))

and see if the created file makes any sense.  You can also try
combining the result of diff-repo with apply-patch and/or
invert-patch.

Hopefully this will soon lead to functions to show a human-readable
diff of changes, and a function to record patches.
