Readme for darcs-2.14.3

[back to package description]

Darcs

Darcs is a distributed version control system written in Haskell.

Getting started

Compiling

Build instructions are available at http://darcs.net/Binaries but they may not be up-to-date.

Here is a quick run down. The easiest way to build darcs is by using cabal-install version 3.2 or later. A plain

cabal build

should work out of the box with any ghc-8.x version. You may see some cabal warnings. Ignore them. If you want to run the tests, you need

cabal build --enable-tests

This can be made permanent by using

cabal configure --enable-tests

before building, which is useful mainly for development. Or you can combine building and testing:

cabal test --test-show-details=streaming

You can also run

cabal install

to install the library and the executable.

Using

To clone a repository from HTTP and send patches by mail:

$ darcs clone --lazy http://darcs.net
$ (edit files)
$ darcs add (new files)
$ darcs record -m "my changes"
$ darcs send

To clone from SSH and push patches:

$ darcs clone user@hub.darcs.net:user/repo
$ (edit files)
$ darcs add (new files)
$ darcs record -m "my changes"
$ darcs push

To create a project and start working:

$ darcs init (project)
$ cd (project)
$ (add files)
$ darcs add (files)
$ darcs record -m "initial version"

See http://darcs.net/Using for more information.
