[darcs-users] Display changes recorded after a specific date/time

[Stefan Wehr (formerly Heimann)]

Hi all,

how can I display all changes recorded after (or before) a specific date/time? 
I thought 'darcs changes --from-match=PATTERN' would be the way to go, but I 
could not find any documentation for the PATTERN format.

Short example:

The 3 most recent changes to lambdabot:

  Thu Jun  9 20:22:32 EST 2005  Paolo Martini <p.martini at neuralnoise.com>
    * @botsnack

  Sun Jun 12 14:07:52 EST 2005  Don Stewart <dons at cse.unsw.edu.au>
    * Better @code heuristics

  Mon Jun 13 22:24:27 EST 2005  Don Stewart <dons at cse.unsw.edu.au>
    * new topic code

Now I want to see all changes recorded after Jun 11, so I tried:

  $ darcs changes --reverse --from-match='date "20050611000000"'
  darcs: Couldn't find patch matching "date "20050611000000""

Strangly, I can view all changes recorded after Jun 12:

  $ darcs changes --reverse --from-match='date "20050612000000"'
  Sun Jun 12 14:07:52 EST 2005  Don Stewart <dons at cse.unsw.edu.au>
    * Better @code heuristics

  Mon Jun 13 22:24:27 EST 2005  Don Stewart <dons at cse.unsw.edu.au>
    * new topic code

I think that's because there is a patch recorded on Jun 12, but no patch 
recored on Jun 11. 

Can someon explain me what's happening here?

Cheers,
  Stefan
