[darcs-devel] [issue859] List patch file names in "darcs changes --xml-output" for hashed repos

[Ben Coburn]

New submission from Ben Coburn <btcoburn at silicodon.net>:

Patch hashes and file names no longer match in darcs2 and hashed format
repositories. This makes it impossible to lookup patch files directly from
"darcs changes --xml-output". 

For example a patch with darcs hash
20080128005838-05dcb-a7c228b57b2e79e7bffc030afe4a0779e4ffd17b now has file name
0000040078-73e502b633fb4b4cb3153793cd948fa2b95bc3f05ff570c1a7440a93340f60ea.

Please update the XML output for darcs2 & hashed repos. I suggest adding a
"patch-file" attribute to the "patch" element. Also, the "hash" attribute should
no longer end in ".gz" as this is misleading. Thanks.
