New submission from Trent Buck <trentbuck at gmail.com>:
Package: darcs
Version: 2.0.2-2
Severity: minor
Tags: upstream
While in a repo, I accidentally ran "darcs rec ~/foo" instead of
"darcs rec ./foo". This resulted in the error:
Ignoring non-repository paths: /home/twb/foo
which I expected. What surprised me is that darcs went on to ask me
about all unrecorded changes -- as if I'd run "darcs rec". I expected
it to simply return immediately, because none of the files listed on
the command line had unrecorded changes.
That is, I expected it to behave similarly to this:
$ darcs rec ~/foo bar
Ignoring non-repository paths: /home/twb/foo
Recording changes in "bar":
Ok, if you don't want to record anything, that's fine!
