hi,

using darcs 1.0.9 (release), it seem what only

cat file|darcs apply works, and

darcs apply file just hangs (probably it wants to read from stdin, too)

please ask for more info if i missed something

thanks,
- VMiklos

vmiklos,

Are you saying "darcs apply file" always hangs for you, or just with one
particular patch bundle you are trying to apply? 

Have you had a chance to test the file with a new a darcs and a repo that has
been through "darcs convert" ? There has been significant improvements lately
which may improve your experience.

no, the problem is that "darcs apply <file>" should read from <file>
while currently it still reads from stdin. and this used to work. i
haven't tracked it down which patch broke it.

(if <file> is omitted then it's ok to read from stdin obviously, but
only in that case)

We have an automated test, "send_apply.sh" that tests that 'darcs apply file'
works. I just confirmed that this passes, so I'm marking this one as "resolved
in unstable". 

If "sh test/send_apply.sh" fails for you with a darcs checkout, please re-open
the ticket.

ah, great. the buggy one was some older stable release.
