The output of darcs said send this stuff so here it is

I had a whole lot of listing files that I accidently added to the repo. 
  In the process of trying to remove them I've somehow borked up my repo.

I was using 1.0.3rc1 when it started.  Just to see if it might make a 
difference I grabbed the last binary from glozer.net and tried with it. 
    The --exact-version info is from the developemnt version.

darcs check and darcs repair seem to think things are ok.

This is all on a windows xp box.

When I try to do a record I get:

"Yikes, pending has conflicts"
then later on
"There was an attempt to write a invalid pending"


Here's the output from --exact-version

[Explain the missing ChangeLog
Mark Stosberg <mark at summersault.com>**20050526135421

  It should be easy for casual users and contributors to view and update the
  ChangeLog.

  Providing a README file in the place where people are most likely to look
  provides a very useful clue.

  However, it's still not clear to me exactly how the system works, so I 
have
  left a stub to complete that documentation.
