While playing with darcs for the first time I came accross an
errormessage which could be a little more user friendly i guess:
I had a file 'foo' in the root of my repository and wanted to move it to
the directory 'bar' (just to try the mv command). So i created the
folder 'bar' and launched 'darcs mv foo bar/'. However this resulted in
a message "darcs failed:  The target directory bar doesn't exist in
working directory.". It took my quite some time to understand that i
first had to 'darcs add bar/', before i could move the file.
If the message would have said something like "directory bar must be
added to your repository before you can move files into it" it would
have been much easier to understand.
Just an idea ofcourse...

thx!
Greetz,
Jeroen
