You could go for documenting your experiments then. First of all, you can assign arbitrary tags to the tip commits of your experimental lines of history. A tag view is there to select the one you need. Another easy possibilty is the wiki: you can refer to any commit using its SHA-1 name in square brackets, so you can create a page titled, say, "experiments" and roll something like this: <h2>My experiments</h2> * [44c9e93a9187a07340da8b2984b2118990637d5a|A crazy idea] * [8a428d5c2a0097418170509ab03faed0a335f796|Using bars to style foos] ... where you get those SHA-1 commit names from the commit views. The end result is that you have a nice-looking list of your experimental lines of history, decorated by arbitrary comments. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
