I got this *after* spending an hour downloading patches.  Is it stupid
to offer to create a lazy repository at this point?

$ ssh soy darcs get --complete --tag 2.1.0pre3 http://darcs.net/

Thanks a lot. Just to clarify: You would like the offer to create a lazy 
repository to appear at a much earlier point in time. Please correct me if this 
is wrong.

Best regards

Really, I think if I have explicitly asked for --complete, it should
not offer to create a lazy repository at all.

AIUI the current behaviour is clearly wrong, because with --complete
it offers to create a lazy repository after that's no longer possible
(because the potentially "lazy" parts have already been downloaded).

Thanks a lot, my mistake.

I am leaving this with wishlist priority, since I presume that it doesn't really 
prevent any particular use of darcs. So now we only need a volunteer to do the 
real work.

Thanks and best regards
