[darcs-users] spooky action at a distance: file ownerships in repository b (pristine.hashed) change after changing ownerships in repo a

[Thomas Hartman]

Qualified with "I believe" because I just got feedback that indicates
there are still permissioning bugs, but I don't believe these are
related to hard linking.
