Fossil Bugs
- Good starting point for evaluation of Fossil on windows platform is ability to work with wiki. The frustrating issue is that I can't manage to add files to repository to be able to play with them locally and start to use it. For troubles encountered please see Windows XP So far the only approximation available to me is deducing its features from www.fossil-scm.org web side. I am trying to debug latest code (2008-07-13 12:08:47), with little progress. I would really appreciate, advice where to look to have workable windows environment.(ability to add/commit). Thanks.
- Is there any working mailing list for Fossil? Great plans are described on fossil pages, unfortunately on XP it so far allows only editing wiki pages, no check in of files. Some details on Windows XP
- anonymous may break wiki-security by simply accessing any wiki page as http://my.server.test/fossil/wikiedit?name=SomeWikiPage.
- Building on some Unix platforms (e.g. OpenSolaris) requires adding -lsocket to the linker args. To do this, set LDFLAGS=-lsocket and the Makefile will add that to the linker args. (Requires a fossil newer than 2008.04.25)
- .filename files (like .htaccess) can't be added in fossil repositories for some reason. The complaint is "illegal character in file name". This has been changed - you can now check-in files whose names begin with "."
- On Windows XP, clone command and friends "unable to open database file " error message. See Windows XP
- (arjenmarkus) The description of the Wiki formatting rules is slightly confusing - maybe because I am used to the Tclers' Wiki, but I could not get the bullets to work. drh sez: two spaces, a "*", then two more spaces, then your text.
- (arjenmarkus) An HTML document rendered using Tcllib's doctools was shown in truncated form (see http://fortran.sqlite.org/index.html/wiki?name=Documentation). drh sez: This was fixed in [71104b898d] - just needed to recompile the fossil on the website.
- (arjenmarkus) If you use the pre and /pre tag in the Wiki, then empty lines inside these tags result in a new paragraph, not an empty line. drh sez: The <pre> markup does not disable wiki. Use <nowiki><pre> instead.
