[darcs-devel] [issue757] darcs2 fails to identify the repository on some restrictive http servers.

[Nicolas Pouillard]

New submission from Nicolas Pouillard <nicolas.pouillard at gmail.com>:

With darcs2 doing

  darcs get http://www.lri.fr/~sozeau/repos/coq/fingertrees

Shows that asking for the _darcs/format file returns an HTML error since the
format file doesn't exist.

I would like to help but I don't know what would be the right fix. There is a
trade-off between reporting parsing errors and conclude that the file is not
reliable and so fall back to darcs1 repo format.
