Hi Stephan, thanks for adressing the topic and for updating the documentation! I have another small wish for improvement ;-) (just cosmetics / text layout): All other fossil commands on the page are liste this way: ---- Introduction to do something ... with these commands: fossil info fossil status ... Explaining paragrah ... ---- Could you please do the same with "checkout" & "update", e.g. ---- To switch a checkout between different versions and branches, use these commands: fossil update fossil checkout Update honors the "autosync" option and does a "soft" switch, merging any local changes into the target version, whereas checkout does not sync and does a "hard" switch, potentially overwriting local changes (after prompting). ---- Regards, Michael _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
