[darcs-users] removing old history

[Dan]

Hi all,

I have a darcs repo that was until now private, and I want to make it public. Unfortunately the repo history contains some old files (and their history) that cannot be made public. How can I create a cleansed public repo? Can I just run "darcs remove" and then remove the patch files that refer to the offending files?

Sure, this could be achieved by running a number of patches in reverse and creating a new repo, but I hope there's an easier way.
