There was a patch for this, but it only handled the case for scp.  This seems
like it's worth fixing.  We just need the sftp case covered as well.

It sounds like there is still uncertainty here about why this fails and if is
something we should even be addressing or whether it is "not-our-bug".

Just wanted to note that we had applied this patch in stable, but then decided
to roll it back, because it wasn't worth the risk.  

I'd recommend that a revised patch which covers both the scp and sftp be submitted.

See message <20070530191915.GB217@dewdrop.local> on darcs-devel, or
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.darcs.devel/5830

well, I guess the problem was that my postfix wasn't set up and running :) I
tried it once more, hope it arrives now.

Hi,

For what it's worth, I haven't received anything from the mailing list.
Could you double-check?  The darcs send should result in a mail to the
darcs-devel@darcs.net list

Or if that doesn't work, maybe attach a darcs patch to the tracker by
sending it as an attachment.

Sorry to make you jump through hoops!  Just think of it as your first
contribution to the darcs community (pending review, of course).

ok, did it. Though I can't be quite sure that it is correct or that it is enough :)

Any chance you could darcs send a patch to
http://www.abridgegame.org/repos/darcs-stable/

(I'd say stable, as this seems innocuous enough a fix)

Here is the problem:

====================
:~/tmp/darcs> mkdir two\ words
:~/tmp/darcs> cd two\ words/
:~/tmp/darcs/two words> darcs init
:~/tmp/darcs/two words> cd ..
:~/tmp/darcs> darcs get "localhost:tmp/darcs/two words"
Invalid repository:  localhost:tmp/darcs/two words

darcs failed:  (scp) failed to fetch: localhost:tmp/darcs/two words/_darcs/inventory
====================

Here is how I solved it for myself (a darcs patch):

===================
{
hunk ./External.hs 188
+                 tr ' ' = "\\ "
}
===================

I imagine that copySSHs might also need some change.
