I agree that the concept of non-rewritable history in a given repository is a good thing. But it should not preclude ability to export a subset of history (a fully connected component of the original DAG) as a separate repository (might be even with a different project-ID). If I have a book "History of the World" I should be able to take a chapter on American History and publish it as a book "History of the USA". --Leo-- _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
