  * Initial implementation of --ask-deps flag to darcs tag
  
  A user may want to tag just a subset of their repo, and this is much more
  convenient than making a separate repo just to tag.
  
  Note that this initial implementation is quite inefficient - it grabs
  all the patches in the repo in one big list.

  * Disallow "skip all" option in interactive selection for tag --ask-deps
  
  The default for tags is to depend on all patches. --ask-deps allows some
  to be left out, but the user should explicitly select those. Trying to
  leave out most patches in a large repository is likely to be very slow
  and is probably a mistake.
  
  The implementation, exposing an 'allowSkipAll' constructor field on
  PatchSelectionContext, is a bit ad-hoc. However the alternative would be
  extending the selectionContextXXX functions with another parameter for
  this one special case. I think in general it makes sense to allow this
  style for overriding defaults.

I have often wanted that feature. Very cool!

OK. I'm surprise there was not off the shelf function to build a
PatchSet from an FL (PatchInfo a).

I already said on darcs-users that I agreed with this. Ok.

Good.

Accepted.
