That sounds perfect. So perfect in fact I wonder why it isn't a
default every time you do a pull, to create a server_context somewhere
in prefs.

Then you could add darcs send --offline, which would --context against
the last server_context.

For me, that would be an incredibly useful addition to darcs. I
already have a customised darcs push command (which maps http:
addresses to ssh addresses using a custom table for my servers), and
I'm very tempted to add a push/send command which does the above
sequence.

Thanks

Neil
