It's tremendously useful for, e.g., my fossil_php_lint script that I use to run `php -l` on all modified or added PHP files before I commit. It means you can pipe (or xargs) the output of any of the affected commands to other processes no matter where you are in the repo and have it actually work. > From dealing with large repositories, it makes a lot more sense > to follow CVS/SVN here and restrict the operation to the directory > currently in and have an option to make it default to the whole tree. fossil is more like git in expected repo layout than it is like SVN. In SVN you *have* to treat everything as directory-relative, since branches and tags are also modeled as directories. I think we're past the point in history where taking design cues from CVS looks like a good idea on the face. It's not hard to turn the new output into what you want, though.
