`rcs_commit()` uses backticks instead of `system()`, to prevent darcs' output being sent to the browser and mucking with the HTTP headers (`darcs record` has no --quiet option). And `rcs_recentchanges()` uses regexes rather than parsing darcs' XML output.

Well, here's my version too. It only does getctime -- using a real XML parser, instead of regexp ugliness -- and maybe recentchanges, but that may be bitrotted, or maybe I never finished it, as I only need the getctime. As for actual commits, I have previously voiced my opinion, that this should be done by the plugin generating a patch bundle, and forwarding it to darcs in some way (`darcs apply` or even email to another host, possibly moderated), instead of the hacky direct modification of a working copy. It could also be faster to getctime in a batch. Just reading in all the changes the first time they're needed, might not be a big improvement in many cases, but if we got a batch request from ikiwiki, we could keep reaing the changes until all the files in this batch request have been met. --[[tuomov]]

I merged the two versions above and made some fixes; it is recording my web edits in darcs and showing a recent changes page.

+I have addressed the recentchanges bit, you can find my hacked up darcs.pm at <http://web.mornfall.net/stuff/web-root/IkiWiki/Rcs/darcs.pm>.
+
+It's got couple of FIXMEs, and a very site-specific filter for recentchanges. Not sure how to do that better though. I will eventually add web commits, probably of my own (and mention it here).
