I have a question for you: When you say you "copy" the repo, are you file coping or doing a fossil clone? Again, when you say you "overwrite" the repo on Computer 1, are overwriting the file or doing a sync?
If you are really overwriting the repositories then I can well expect that there are problems. I have a similar setup, but I maintain a fossil repo on a thumb drive; when I get home, I do a sync with the repo on my home machine and I'm up to date. I update the workspace and I'm ready to work. Fossil is an extremely powerful and flexible tool, but it does have a few rules; one of those is to associate a check out with one (and only one) repository. -----Original Message----- From: fossil-users-boun...@lists.fossil-scm.org [mailto:fossil-users-boun...@lists.fossil-scm.org] On Behalf Of Louis Hoefler Sent: Wednesday, February 16, 2011 9:19 AM To: fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org Subject: [fossil-users] Fossil file deletion Following szenario: I have two computers. On computer 1, I create a fossil with some work. Now I commit my work and copy the fossil to computer 2. I rename files on computer 2, do some other work, and commit. I make some filechanges on computer 1, and commit. Now I have two fossils who are out of sync. I come back home and overwrite the fossil from computer 1 with the one from computer 2 (where I renamed files). Now, after I do a fossil update, the (modified) files on computer 1 are deleted and fossil stops the update process, becouse it can not find the newly renamed files. I do not really understand the logic behind this error but, if this isnt the case: Files should be deleted only, if they have not changed (in case of a rename they should not be deleted if the last known version in fossil differs from the current file on disk).
