New submission from Clive Crous <clive at darkarts.co.za>:
I had a DNS error on my one server (without knowing this) and the following occured:
--
scorpion% darcs pull --verbose --all http://usrsrc.org/darcs/rupov/
darcs failed: Not a repository: http://usrsrc.org/darcs/rupov/
--
It was only after a while that i thought to try ping:
--
scorpion% ping usrsrc.org
ping: cannot resolve usrsrc.org: No address associated with name
--
the url provided certainly *is* a repository, even a message that elluded to
some form of network error would be better than: "that is not a repo"
