            Bug ID: 6152
           Summary: hg convert of a darcs repository fails with darcs
                    2.14.1 and newer
           Product: Mercurial
           Version: 4.5.3
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: bug
          Priority: wish
         Component: convert
          Assignee: bugzilla at mercurial-scm.org

hg convert DARCSREPOSITORY 
fails with: 
---
abort: darcs exited with status 1
---

hg convert DARCSREPOSITORY --debug 
returns:
---
assuming destination bii_scripts-hg
initializing destination bii_scripts-hg repository
running: darcs --version
2.14.1 (release)
running: darcs show repo --no-files
'--repodir=/net/elbe.acc.bessy.de/srv/projects/ctl/pfeiffer/project-elbe/bii_scripts'
command line: unrecognized option `--no-files'
abort: darcs exited with status 1
---
The problem is that newer versions of darcs don't have option "--no-files" any
more. 

Fix: Change hgext/convert/darcs.py, apply this patch:
