1 patch for repository http://darcs.net/screened: patch 8a3bc69e7a55b30aefd58d6b5d2f348e286d35b0 Author: Ben Franksen <ben.franksen@online.de> Date: Fri Jul 5 23:30:01 CEST 2019 * demote errors in defaults file and commandline to warnings When we change the UI by e.g. adding a new command line option, we want the user to be able to use these switches in their defaults file without this giving an error when they use an older version of darcs. So this change improves forwards compatibility. Attachments demote-errors-in-defaults-file-and-commandline-to-warnings.dpatch patch-preview.txt unnamed

The problem this patch fixes hurts me a lot ever since I have added ALL --inherit-default to my global defaults.
