I knew about it. When I read the first paragraph I was afraid you were about to suggest removing the feature for some reason, which would have made me very unhappy since I use the feature frequently (one of those "can't live without it" features). > I think this is a very useful feature.

Perhaps an "Introduction to Fossil" document -- complete with pictures illustrating how to use it? Have you seen The NetBSD Guide? Those types of documents are invaluable to get to know systems, imho. Fossil wouldn't need one quite that big, but a guide with topic along the line of "Branching", "Merging", "Using the timeline", etc chapters would be helpful to get people started with fossil and learn about useful features. /Jan _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
