Hi, all, Once 1.27 officially goes out the door, i plan on pulling the new 'usage' command into the trunk (for 1.28). My question to you is: is there anyone who finds the idea of fossil recording which commands (not their arguments) and the times of their usage in the local checkout database offensive or insecure? These data are _only_ local to the current checkout and are never synchronized. The 'usage' command is only intended for informal personal statistics gathering, and not for spying on developer's activity within a given tree (that would be possible if devs have access to each others' checkout directories).
If you don't find the idea offensive/abusive, you needn't say anything. If you do, please voice your concerns. If there is sufficient outcry i'll drop that branch instead of integrating it. If we do decide to add it, i will add a config option to toggle it on and off (disabled by default). PS: feel free to suggest a better command name than 'usage'. 'history' would be the obvious choice (due to it's analog in Unix shells), but that command name potentially has better uses in a future fossil version, so i don't want to steal that one. -- ----- stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ http://gplus.to/sgbeal
