I've looked at the darcs source, and gone to the extent of learning
to read
Haskell in order to figure it out. Re-implementing darcs in Squeak
would be
be a big job. Not just because Haskell has a very concise syntax
(which would
probably lead to considerable code expansion), but also because darcs
is a big
program. The automatic merger at the heart of darcs is just not a
simple thing
to do.
Despite all that, I use darcs almost exclusively for my non-squeak
programming
and I love it. If Goran can find a way to make use of the Haskell
version that
would really be wonderful!

PS - apologies to the list moderator(s). I use a forwarding account to
receive all my mail, and I can't make anything I send look like it
"came"
from the forwarding email address. This means anything I send looks
like
it is coming from "outside" the list :(.
