The only absurd thing here is your message, the comment wasn't
directed at you, so it would be nice if you didn't speak for Jeremy;
if Jeremy felt offended, then he can talk to me directly. Jeremy's
mail was `darcs does this, tla sucks at this'. I do not call that
that `disucssing design', since it doesn't explain why what darcs is
better.
I will refrain from commenting any more with people who has such
problems reading something so simple, and are suffering from
schizophrenia.
I'm sorry, obviously my English aint gud'nuf and my voices are silent on
this one, so could you (Alfred) please tell me exactly where in the
following Jeremy shits so badly on tla:

I'll throw this one into the ether again:
If there was a way to take a tree and split out changes hunk by hunk
into two or more trees (including a null tree), wouldn't the power of
changesets really finally be there in a way that's far more useful?
This is the default behaviour in darcs -- when you do 'darcs record',
it will iterate through each hunk, rename, etc, and ask if you want
to include it in the changeset. You can also do, 'darcs record -a',
to record everything.
Even if you are very careful about creating clean changesets, this is a
useful feature. For example, sometimes the build process will patch
files, and you don't want to commit those changes. Running:
'make clean && tla commit && make'
Can take a very long time (hours) for something like x.org or OOo.

Myself, I read it as Jeremy saying "oh yes, based on my darcs experience I'd vote
for this, oh and btw it's not just a convenience issue, there are *performace*
implications too, as you can see from the following (current/default) tla
behaviour", but I guess that's just me.
