What is recorded as a "change" by darcs feels more like "This
makes it to do Y instead of doing X", and it is not about
tree-to-tree.

I'm not sure we could go that path.  I see git and darcs as quite
opposed in approach, since darcs works by explicitely describing the
structure of changes, whereas git allows to use arbitrary ways to
derive this structure from the trees.

But then if we could reconcile those 2 approaches...
