Thanks.
BTW, I saw many good changes in fossil last night. I'm pleased :) -----Original Message----- From: D.

Fossil makes those files available for the convenience of the application and the application's makefile. For example, the makefile for SQLite extracts information from its manifest and manifest.uuid in order to generate the sqlite3_sourceid() interface. http://www.sqlite.org/c3ref/libversion.htmlThe makefile for fossil itself also uses these files to construct the version information that is displayed when you type "fossil version".If this information were in the _FOSSIL_ file or was only available using the "fossil" command, then you would not be able to build either SQLite or Fossil from the raw "ZIP Archive" download or without having a fossil executable on hand. Hence, it is important that the manifest and manifest.uuid files exist.D.
