[cffi-devel] CFFI darcs repository broken?

Today I tried `darcs pull`ing the repo, but darcs told me the repo I was
pulling looked unrelated to the repo I had.  The last revision I had in
my local repository was from Mon Feb  2 01:22:03 UTC 2009.

So I tried starting over and pulling a clean copy of the repos.  No go
on that either:

$ darcs get http://common-lisp.net/project/cffi/darcs/cffi/ cffi
Unapplicable patch:
Mon Jun 22 19:03:26 UTC 2009  Stelian Ionescu <sionescu at common-lisp.net>
  * Groveler: implement %INVOKE for ABCL.
darcs: ./grovel/grovel.lisp: openBinaryFile: does not exist (No such
file or directory)

$ darcs --version
2.2.0 (release)

I've also tried this on darcs 1.0.8.

Digging in a little bit, I rsync'ed the repos from common-lisp.net.  The
_darcs/inventory file includes only the last 17 changes.  More
frighteningly, one of the checkpoints in _darcs/checkpoints looks corrupt:

$ gunzip --verbose -c
20090616162007-28748-931df2ed8b38d5ad8b6df25ef6f71a9657193d6a.gz >
20090616162007-28748-931df2ed8b38d5ad8b6df25ef6f71a9657193d6a
20090616162007-28748-931df2ed8b38d5ad8b6df25ef6f71a9657193d6a.gz:
gzip: 20090616162007-28748-931df2ed8b38d5ad8b6df25ef6f71a9657193d6a.gz:
invalid compressed data--crc error

Correspondingly, the darcsweb interface on common-lisp.net only shows
the last 17 changes.

I looked through the mailing list archives, but I didn't see where this
had come up.  Is this a known issue?


Thanks,
