To the best of my knowledge, none of the web pages will modify file-level
content, which includes the .fossil-settings.

Can you elaborate on "fine." Was it only the versioned settings which where
different or where there other problems when a checkout dir was involved?

In any case, there's at least one bug here: versioned properties for a
checkout should never be shown in the context of a _different_ repo (which
your Template.fossil is). If nobody beats me to it, i'll take a look at
this tomorrow after work.

Can't speak to that one, but will take a look at the commits (probably
tomorrow, though).
