A less mathematical alternative to this is 'Patch Flipping'. Either way, 
we have a term that is actually fairly accurate, and gives you a 
reasonable idea of what Darcs does. So I hope that it will address 
Stephen's very valid concerns. Btw Stephen, you *are* right that "Smart 
Patches" is fuzzy and imprecise and has no clear meaning. It was just 
the best I could do at the time.

In any case, I'm confident I can rewrite the documentation in terms of 
'Patch Flipping' (or similar).
