Hi! 
 
darcs pull invoked with the relative repo to the (local) directory 
fails: 
 
 
gour at gaura-nitai ~/repos/jyotish/head $ darcs pull 
--dry-run ../../../projects/jyotish/head 
 
darcs failed:  bad repo directory: ../projects/jyotish/head 
 
i.e. "../../../projects/jyotish/head" is parsed as: 
 
"../projects/jyotish/head". 
 
otoh, when invoked with the ~/path form it works: 
 
gour at gaura-nitai ~/repos/jyotish/head $ darcs pull --dry-run 
~/projects/jyotish/head/ 
Pulling from /home/gour/projects/jyotish/head/... 
Would pull the following changes: 
... 
 
Is it a bug? 
 
Sincerely, 
Gour
