I had to make a slight correction. Please try this instead:

I did and it works like a charm AFAICS (mostly: see below). thanks a lot for looking into this! I hope this change will be merged into trunk soon.

one thing confuses me a bit, namely the reported "capabilities" of `myname':

with vers. 8a7a45e094, after cloning as `username@server' and issuing

fossil user new `myname'

the latter (`myname') is directly and consistently reported as the user doing future commits and wiki as well as ticket changes. this is perfectly how it should be. however: `myname' is reported as having only "reader" capabilities (`u') in the web GUI.

while I'm happy that the default user definition is directly honored without further manual tweaking of the capabilities, it seems that the reported `u' capability is wrong (I suspect `myname' de facto has `d' capabilities (or even `a' or `s'?)). do you agree?

I also noted (this is unrelated to your fix!) that the CLI for `fossil user list' does not report the capabilities for the "real" users (it only does so for the generic users (developer etc.)). it would be nicer in my view if the output of `fossil user capabilities username' were integrated into `fossil user list'. but that's a minor issue, of course ...


oh, and a final thing which needs fixing is the usage text here:

issuing the (syntactically wrong) command `fossil user capabilities' yields the usage text:

Usage: fossil user user capabilities USERNAME ?PERMISSIONS?

that's one `user' to much...

thanks a lot,

joerg

Thanks,

Andy
