[darcs-devel] ask-deps quit

[Kevin Quick]

Just ran into a small surprise and I'm not sure if it's something that
should be changed or not, so I'm posing this question to this reflector:

When performing a darcs record --ask-deps, if you answer 'q' during the
change selection phase, the record is aborted, but if you answer 'q'
during the dependency patch selection phase, only the dependency
selection is aborted and the patch is recorded (with no explicit
dependencies, even if some were selected).

My belief is that a 'q' during any phase should abort the record
(which I believe is more consistent with general behavior). Arguments
for not making a change include: (a) users might be expecting this
behavior---even if I didn't, and (b) it can easily be worked around by
unrecording the resulting patch.

Comments?
