Hi all,

For several of my repositories (diagrams-core, diagrams-lib, diagrams-
cairo) it seems that since yesterday, any darcs operation I try (pull,
push, get, ...) all fail with an error like

darcs failed: Not a repository: byo...@patch-tag.com:/r/byorgey/
diagrams-core ((scp) failed to fetch: byo...@patch-tag.com:/r/byorgey/
diagrams-core/_darcs/inventory)

Any ideas what is going on? I tried clicking "fix push permissions"
but it didn't help. I can still browse the repositories, see their
history, etc. just fine through the patch-tag web interface. I'm
happy to provide any additional information that would be helpful in
diagnosing the problem.

thanks,
-Brent

HI folks. Something seems to have slipped by my testing when I
upgraded to ghc 6.12.1 and latest happstack. I've boiled this down to
a username with a multibyte character that doesn't play nicely with
latest ghc and am working to clean this up.

Should be done shortly.

Should be ok now, please let me know otherwise.

Also, I finally got around to make it so that "fix push permissions"
also deletes lingering locks. I am actually not sure if this was the
right thing to do -- those locks were there for a reason, right?

But I haven't been able to determine what is the underlying cause and
this was coming up with some frequency so I'm going to try this while
I continue investigation.

Happy tagging!

thomas.
