[darcs-devel] [issue556] wishlist: default repository for darcs pull and push

[Panu A Kalliokoski]

New submission from Panu A Kalliokoski <panu.kalliokoski at helsinki.fi>:

Currently, giving a new repository for darcs put, pull or push changes
the default repository for darcs pull and push commands.  However,
usually I mostly want to deal with a primary repository ("upstream" /
"central") with pull and push, and only randomly make pull and push
operations from elsewhere.

The interface has sometimes caused irritated situations where I've
pulled in a set of patches from a distant branch or totally unrelated
project, and accidentally then pushed (a bit later) a lot of changes
there by accident.  This is by far the most common way I tend to screw
up with darcs.

Would it be possible to only set the default repository during an
initial get / put, and leave it at that indefinitely?  This would have
been the correct way of operation in all of my situations thus far.

Panu
