Comment (by RyanGlScott):

 `transformers` is another one of these packages whose mirroring situation
 seems odd to me. http://git.haskell.org/ has //two// repos for
 `transformers`. One, http://git.haskell.org/darcs-
 mirrors/transformers.git, is a direct mirror of the darcs repo at
 https://hub.darcs.net/ross/transformers (which updates automatically),
 while the other, http://git.haskell.org/packages/transformers.git, is an
 upstream repo //à la// `terminfo` and `haskeline`. However, GHC uses the
 latter, which requires manual updates!

 Since we're planning to fix this for `terminfo` and `haskeline`, can we
 also do the same for `transformers`?
