And likewise, free to contact me if you need help with Darcs.


Current keyword status of darcs, git and mercurial:

all are ok on alpha, amd64, ppc and x86.
darcs and mercurial are ok on ia64
darcs and git are ok on ppc64 and sparc
git is ok on hppa and mips

hppa should be easy, ghc already works there. We're working on getting
ghc working on mips (it works fine on Irix) but no promises.
