This should help:

Fossil was the first VCS that I used with any regularity. So, from
that point of view, I find when I'm working with bzr, git, and
particularly svn that they each seem really idiosyncratic and weird to
me. So there's *a* point of view, for what little it's worth.

I find fossil to be really scriptable, and over time I've either
scripted over the pain points, learned to accept them, or as often as
not learned to appreciate them. As a case in point, I too originally
found the chattiness of the autosync cycle to be kind of irritating.
Over time, however, I've found it provides a bit of peace of mind when
the network gets slow or something else happens (unexpectedly large
repo?) and I can clearly see that fossil's still doing or trying to do
something. Compare git, where you just type git clone and wait, never
knowing if you fat fingered the url or if you're slowly filling your
drive with 40G of nonsense...
