.fossil as an extension for clones is one thing: it is not simply a convention
due to “fossil server /DIRECTORY” scanning behavior.
There is no reason the hidden file need follow this convention. In fact, it
would be harmful:
$ fossil server /path/to/clone-and-open/checkout/directory
This would find .fossil and require that you pass an empty name in the clone
URL. Confusing and maybe not even possible, since http://localhost:8080 and
http://localhost:8080/ are normally treated as equivalent.
Furthermore, we already have .fsl* at the root of a checkout. Shouldn’t we
follow the existing convention?
