I'm using fossil version 1.20 on Linux for both server and client
computers.

I want to use fossil command line instructions to initialise an
empty repository. I use:

fossil new test.fossil

but I can not find a command to provide the project-name value to
be stored in the config table.

The following instruction does not have the same effect as
using the fossil ui web interface to enter this value.

fossil sqlite3 test.fossil "insert into config values ('project-name',
'Test Repository', current_timestamp)" -R test.fossil

One consequence of using the insert statement that cloning the
repository does not transfer the project-name.

Closed ticket 8473eeb9ffb012e1db8597d97c9f7fdde340485e shown at

http://fossil-scm.org/index.html/tktview?name=8473eeb9ff

refers to this clone behaviour but does not describe how the
repository was created, so it is not clear if the above action
was the cause of the behaviour seen prior that ticket.


As secondary issues, I can not find commands to supply the
project-name and user info fields.

And it would be nice to insert a wiki page (specifically the
home page) from the command line too.

Thanks for any assistance.

Chris Peachment
