[darcs-users] Re: Cannot checkpoint after conversion from CVS?

[James Bruce]

Is it really that case that *nobody* has run into the problem I 
described below?

Since I wasn't able to provide a solution for the people at work in a 
timely manner, it looks like they'll be moving to Subversion.  I still 
love darcs and use it for my personal projects, but I feel like we 
missed an opportunity.
