andymatuschak.org: Sparklings

Do not fear—I’ve not forgotten Sparkle. The progress simply hasn’t been showing up on Trac because David Symonds, who’s been giving me a hand, convinced me to give Git a try.

To be frank, I’m finding it terribly obtuse and much more difficult than Darcs, which seems to have an equivalent feature-set (except for the whole being-really-slow part). Or maybe I’m just not power-user enough to see the difference.

In any case, to follow along while I experiment with this new RCS, you can check out the graphiclog (okay, that’s a cool feature) or the project summary.

Highlights of the last couple days: posets are implemented, and the Atom parser is pretty much done, though it needs to be cleaned up a bit. I’ve also refined the format since I last wrote on it; you can read a new sample here.
