This is not a fault of darcs; this is how Debian packages work. What's the problem? apt-get source and cp -r and that's it. > learn to use interdiff.

One extra command, and it's less work than learning how to use N different patch systems. > Why do dist.VCS fans always talk about patches like the would rain from > the sky just so?
