[darcs-devel] [issue1374] Reduce interdependency between modules

[Trent Buck]

New submission from Trent Buck <trentbuck at gmail.com>:

Currently it seems that most changes to the source code (and in
particular, recording a patch, which causes ThisVersion to be updated)
require recompilation of many other modules.

Generate a dependency graph using graphviz (perhaps based on the
.depend file generated by GNUmakefile) and look for any simple
refactoring changes that could be done to reduce the number of arcs in
the graph.

This might be a suitable familiarization task for someone new to the
Darcs codebase.
