New submission from Owen Stephens <darcs at owenstephens.co.uk>:
1. Summarise the issue (what were doing, what went wrong?)
If we try to apply a patch which has dependencies that are missing, we
get an error listing the missing patches. If we try to get --context
with the same patchfile, we just get told that there are missing
patches, not what they are:
> darcs apply foopatch.dpatch
darcs failed: Sun Sep 9 15:40:05 BST 2012 Ganesh Sittampalam
<ganesh at earth.li>
tagged 2.9.5
FATAL: Cannot apply this bundle. We are missing the above patches.
> darcs get repo --context foopatch.dpatch
Copying patches, to get lazy repository hit ctrl-C...
Using lazy repository.
darcs: Missing patches from context!
2. What behaviour were you expecting instead?
I want darcs to tell me which patches are missing when using darcs get
--context
3. What darcs version are you using? (Try: darcs --exact-version)
2.9.4 (+ 11 patches)
4. What operating system are you running?
Linux x86_64
