[darcs-users] Viewing changes to a file

[Mads Lindstrøm]

Hi

I am trying to view changes to a file. Not just the summary, but the
actual changes. And I have looked at the Darcs manual, been googling,
and searching mail archives. But I am yet to discover how to do that.

Firstly, I would do this:

  darcs changes CompileClasses.hs

and get this output

  Changes to wxdirect/src/CompileClasses.hs:
  
  Sun Aug 19 22:42:30 CEST 2007  shelarcy <shelarcy at gmail.com>
    * Use Data.Time.getCurrentTime instead of (System.)Time.getClockTime
    to avoid build failure by generated non-UTF8 String
  
  Sun Aug 13 23:04:20 CEST 2006  Eric Kow <eric.kow at loria.fr>
    * (wxdirect, Unicode) Use the Haskell types for C wchar_t and friends.
  
    I believe this would require that wxWidgets be compiled with Unicode
    enabled.
  ...

Now I somehow need to tell Darcs to give me a the changes between some
of the listed versions. When I try I mostly get error messages which I
do not understand.

I would be very gratefully I somebody would tell me how to do
this. Especially how to specify which patches I want.

An example would be very helpful.
