One possible way to get around this is for $REPOSITORY to be set for the
predist command. You could then have 'darcs setpref predist "darcs
--repodir=$REPOSITORY query manifest>MANIFEST"'
I came across a similar situation but I wanted 'changes' to run. And
I'd hate to have a --manifest, --changes, --this-and-that. Plus, you
can't pass in any extra parameters to the commands.
Note that 'query' does not seem to support --repodir, but it probably
should.
