[darcs-users] Darcs utterly melts my brain: why PatchInfoAnd?

[Florent Becker]

Hi list,

as a newbie darcs hacker, i have a ton of naïve questions. If you don't
mind me asking them, i'll try to compile your answers into darcs-doc
strings in the code for the next generation of darcs hackers.

The first one is: what problem does the 'PatchInfoAnd' type solve? Why
don't we call 'Darcs.Patch.Core.patch2patchinfo' everywhere, and what is
the Hopefully for?

Thanks for your answers

Florent
