| 6 | What about this: |
| 7 | |
| 8 | darcs send -o patch.darcspatch |
| 9 | darcs diff -u -p"${PATCHRE}" > patch.diff.txt |
| 10 | |
| 11 | and then send both to the mailing list as attachments? This is more |
| 12 | work for the submitter, as they have to attach the files to a message |
| 13 | and send the message (instead of allowing "darcs send" to send the |
| 14 | message for them). |

| 16 | The good things about this are (a) hopefully everyone can see the |
| 17 | patch contents in-line in the mail and (b) you can add a "cover |
| 18 | letter" -- a message to the mailing list about the patch. |
