I've answered a bit fast. You actually need to declare all sublevels: /official_game_assets /official_game_assets/alpha /official_game_assets/beta /official_game_assets/beta/Binaries ... In order to create the dirs, just run “fossil update”. -- Benoit Mortgat _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
