History
Darcs evolved out of David Roundy's efforts to design a new patch format for GNU arch in June 2002. These discussions didn't lead to any code being committed to arch, but did lead to his theory of patches. After writing an initial version of darcs in C++, the Haskell version was written in Autumn 2002 and released to the public in April 2003. Version 2.5 contains many improvements over the 2.4 series. Most notable are the performance improvements in record and pull and the --bisect option for trackdown.
