1. Summarise the issue (what were doing, what went wrong?)
Now "darcs mark-conflicts" allows to re-do the job that is done
automatically by "pull" (or "unsuspend" or "apply" or similar commands)
whenever one wants to. (Might be useful if the working directory has
been reverted.)
However, marking is just one way to treat the conflicts after "pull";
another one is with --external-merge.
"darcs mark-conflicts" does not have this option; so, it's not able to
re-do the job of treating the conflicts in this mode.
2. What behaviour were you expecting instead?
There is a command that allows one to treat the conflicts in any mode
(marking as well as calling an external merge tool) whenever one wants
to. (E.g., after reverting the working dir.)
Git has "git mergetool" to do this whenever one wants, even if one did
forget to set such an option for "merge" etc.
So I suggest to add such an option to "darcs mark-conflicts" (it's
logical as explained in this bug report, though the name would become a
bit misleading.)
3. What darcs version are you using? (Try: darcs --exact-version)
$ darcs --exact-version
