# Each patch is attributed to its author, usually by email address (for # example, `Fred Bloggs '). Darcs looks in several # places for this author string: the --author option, the files # _darcs/prefs/author (in the repository) and ~/.darcs/author (in your # home directory), and the environment variables $DARCS_EMAIL and # $EMAIL. If none of those exist, Darcs will prompt you for an author # string and write it to _darcs/prefs/author. jeremy.odonoghue@gmail.com
