Hi,

as darcs asked me politely to report this, here you go.  I just

  - created a local repository,
  - added a few files and recorded the patch,
  - compiled a few of these files and did a 'whatsnew',
  - patched the boring file to exclude latex temp files from the
    output (and called 'setpref boringfile' a few times on the way and
    still haven't got it eat the regexps I was giving it, if you want
    to help me there i'd be very greatful).
  - and called a 'darcs pull', just to see what happens.

here is the output of the last action:

$ darcs pull
darcs: bug in darcs!
Impossible case at Pull.lhs:194 compiled 12:00:18 Feb 17 2006
Please report this to bugs@darcs.net,
If possible include the output of 'darcs --exact-version'.

i guess this is one of those 'nobody would do such a stupid thing'
things, but an error message like 'you cannot pull because you just
created this repo on this spot' would be less 'buggy' still.

see attachment for exact version.

thanks, regards,
m.
