Hello,

I've tidied up the versionable-settings branch, which also adds an empty-dirs 
setting. I welcome feedback and testing -- if you can, let me know what you 
think, and any bugs you find.

  http://fossil-scm.org/index.html/timeline?r=versionable-settings

"fossil help settings" should tell you everything you need to know, and it will 
spit out warnings when non-versioned and versioned settings conflict.

I've been wondering whether it's worth trying to do something with these in the 
import command, converting the potentially multiple .gitignore files to a 
single .fossil-settings/ignore-glob file. However, for my use case of importing 
from svn, the git svn command won't commit the generated .gitignore files. 
Also, I had hoped that something with empty-dirs could be done for svn import, 
eg using the $GIT_DIR/svn/<refname>/unhandled.log file, but it's messy.

Maybe it's not worth it, as it's not going to be a particularly good or 
complete solution. I presume anyone converting from svn to fossil will keep the 
old repo around in case an old version needs to be extracted and actually used. 
The pre-fossil history in the fossil repo works well enough to understand the 
changes made.

Ben
