[darcs-devel] [issue1189] lock is not deleted on ctrl-C

[David Roundy]

New submission from David Roundy <droundy at darcs.net>:

darcs no longer removes the _darcs/lock file when ctrl-C is hit while recording
(or doing just about anything else).  I could track this down, but I'd really
prefer to have a test for it first.  Alas, I've spent an hour or so trying to
construct such a test, but have failed.  :( Tricks like

sleep 10 | darcs record
kill %darcs

don't seem to work except interactively--which is not the point, it's easy
enough to reproduce this bug interactively.  Of course, this regression may
depend on stdin/out being a terminal, in which case it may not be possible to
check in the test suite.  :(

David
