I don't recomment it.  But if you really want to...

You will need to:

  - change the timestamp in the patch files;
  - recompute the pi hash, and rename the patch files accordingly;
  - modify _darcs/inventory consistently.

Code for computing the pi hash (the patch file's filename) can be
found in the funciton make_filename in PatchInfo.lhs.
