http://www.darcs.net/DarcsWiki/Tailor - fun and interesting
if you want to export to git make sure you after pack the tree and then
prune, otherway you get a huge overhead.
I wonder if arch2 will fix all the tla shortcomings.
btw, I played a bit with git recently and probably I'll give a try with
mercurial soon and I couldn't find any annoying issues so far.
To the people that are thinking that isn't necessary to go distributed,
well, nothing is preventing us from using the same paradigm.
