[darcs-users] Re: several variants and developers at the same time

[Ben Hood]

Hi,

I'm new to darcs and am interested in this scenario as well.

What if you did all of your common work in a parent repository and then
cloned this to a child where you implement the specifics?

If and when you want to push back changes to the parent, can't you just
cherry pick what should go back?

Thanks,

Ben
