Trying out workarounds to issue1990 and issue1693 I notice that the help on environment settings does not mention any DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_XXX I knew about DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_8BIT, but I see several others that probably needs some explanation: $ strings ~/.cabal/bin/darcs \|grep '^DARCS_' \| sort \| uniq DARCS_ DARCS_ALTERNATIVE_COLOR DARCS_ALWAYS_COLOR DARCS_ARGUMENT DARCS_DONT_COLOR DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_8BIT DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_ANYTHING DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_EXTRA DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_ISPRINT DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_TRAILING_CR DARCS_DONT_ESCAPE_TRAILING_SPACES DARCS_DO_COLOR_LINES DARCS_EDITOR DARCS_EMAIL DARCS_ESCAPE_EXTRA DARCS_FILES DARCS_KEEP_TMPDIR DARCS_MGETMAX DARCS_PAGER DARCS_PATCHES DARCS_PATCHES_XML DARCS_PROXYUSERPWD DARCS_SCP DARCS_SFTP DARCS_SLOPPY_LOCKS DARCS_SSH DARCS_TESTING_PREFS_DIR DARCS_TMPDIR DARCS_USE_ISPRINT thank you, ciao, lele. -- nickname: Lele Gaifax \| Quando vivrò di quello che ho pensato ieri real: Emanuele Gaifas \| comincerò ad aver paura di chi mi copia. lele@nautilus.homeip.net \| -- Fortunato Depero, 1929.

We need to sweep through and make sure all our environment variables are documented in darcs help environment. One tricky thing would be avoiding duplication with the manual. The thing is that we still want them to be documented in the manual somewhere. This may involve some hacking on preproc.hs

Glad to find this issue noted. Honoured future bugfixer, here is documentation for DARCS_SLOPPY_LOCKS: http://osdir.com/ml/file- systems.fuse.sshfs/2006-09/msg00013.html

It's not a regression since 2.5, so bumping to 2.10.

Again, resolved by Radoslav and me during the 2013 sprint and shortly after.
