1 patch for repository http://darcs.net: Thu Jul 25 17:06:22 CEST 2013 Guillaume Hoffmann <guillaumh@gmail.com> * change format of patch name file when a text editor is invoked Use for '#' instead of end-of-description marker, many editors will colour these lines as comments.

Putting darcs-users as nosy so that users can see what is happening, and give opinions on the topic :-) Short summary: since http://bugs.darcs.net/issue2321 was fixed a month ago, users will be more likely to see the text editor firing up prefilled with the no-patch-name help text. This patch makes it look more like git, mercurial () or fossil's one, by prefixing lines of the help text by "#". This change is currently in screened. () with mercurial the lines are prefixed by "HG:"
