Yes, I have.

.From looking at http://github.com/jgm/gitit/tree/master/Gitit%2FGit.hs
with my small knowledge of Haskell, it looks like it'd be possible to
write a similar layer by calling darcs' binary, as I do for wikiri; with
the exception of grep (can be replaced by regular grep over the files
resulting from "darcs query manifest") and gitMergeFile (I have no idea
if this can be replaced, but maybe it can be avoided).

If anyone is interested in writing such code, maybe the wikiri code
(which is written in Python) can be useful for the commands equivalence
(and maybe parsing).

The relevant section of the code is in wikiri.cgi, line 644
(http://blitiri.com.ar/git/?p=wikiri;a=blob;f=wikiri.cgi;hb=HEAD#l644).

Obviously if anyone has any questions regarding it, please let me know.

Thanks,
		Alberto
