The manual: http://darcs.net/manual/node8.html#SECTION008111000000000000000 The wiki: http://wiki.darcs.net/DarcsWiki/DarcsTwo (see darcs convert --help) All fail to describe the darcs 2 format. Users need to at least know: (a) Why to upgrade (b) How to upgrade (c) The risk of upgrading We should also explain how darcs 2 semantics differ from darcs1 semantics.

The process for converting a repository is hinted at here: http://darcs.net/manual/node7.html#SECTION00740000000000000000

Indeed, this was added recently via Thu Aug 7 20:54:29 BST 2008 Max Battcher <me@worldmaker.net> * Add user-focused documentation of repository format options We should ask Max for help here in figuring out what else needs to be documented
