Hello

I'm now using darcs 0.9.6woody-1.  It's getting better, but I can
still confuse it

  rm -rf foo1 foo2
  mkdir foo1 foo2
  cd foo1
  darcs inittree
  touch foo bar
  darcs add foo bar
  darcs record -a -m add_foo_bar -A x
  darcs mv foo zig
  darcs mv bar foo
  darcs mv zig bar
  darcs record -a -m swap_foo_bar -A x
  cd ../foo2
  darcs inittree
  darcs pull -v ../foo1
  
The pull command fails with

  [add_foo_bar
  x**Thu Apr 17 15:59:29 BST 2003] 
  Shall I pull this patch? [ynvaswh] a
  So far so good... the merge succeeded.

  Fail: does not exist
  Action: withFileOrSymlinkStatus
  Reason: No such file or directory

It works if I pull in two steps

  darcs pull -m add_foo_bar ../foo1
  darcs pull -m swap_foo_bar ../foo1
