[darcs-devel] [issue459] darcs changes --xml-output --repo=remote-repo

[Attila Lendvai]

New submission from Attila Lendvai <attila.lendvai at gmail.com>:

dear darcs devs,

darcs changes --xml-output
--repo=http://www.common-lisp.net/project/cl-wdim/darcs/pvez/

fails with:

darcs failed:  Not a repository:
http://www.common-lisp.net/project/cl-wdim/darcs/pvez/ (Failed to
create temporary file darcs: permission denied (Permission denied))

the problem is that it starts walking the parent directories until it
finds a '_darcs' dir because it assumes local operation. the result is
that it reaches "/" where it can not write.

this happens with the current stable branch and it was working with a
later version of darcs.

hth,
