One may have a public-facing repo and want it to be readable by the fossil 
binaries packaged for all common OSes.  That’s going to be Fossil 1.x for 
several years yet, if only because of some unfortunate timing with respect to 
Debian’s Stretch’s hard-freeze date, which passed while Fossil 1.37 was current.

I’ve got such a public-facing repo, but because the project is young enough and 
small enough, I’m going to be able to force a Fossil 2.1+ switch by fiat.  I 
can imagine that not all projects will be able to do so as easily.

I am quite happy with the new hash-policy design for this sort of reason.  
(Thank you!)  It lets the server upgrade to Fossil 2.1+ while still serving 
Fossil 1.x clients.

I’m going to force the Fossil 2.x switch for my own project because any future 
problems we have with SHA1 will be greatly mitigated if all the SHA1 commits 
are buried years in the past by at least one SHA3 commit before practical SHA1 
attacks become inexpensive.  Since some branches may remain open but largely 
dormant for years, that means I need to start soon.

Yes, I’ve been on both sides of this issue.  It isn’t a simple matter.  You’ve 
negotiated it very nicely!

Yes, I too have noticed a dependency problem in the makefile, that is
cleared by "make clean fossil".  I haven't tracked it down yet.

I build with parallel make almost all the time, and I got this error when 
updating one of my fossil-scm.org trees likely last updated on March 2:

bld/dispatch.o:(.rodata+0xf68): undefined reference to `uvstat_page'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

That function was removed between the 2nd and the 6th.

Re-running “make” fixed it, which suggests that the manual dependencies you’re 
using are outdated.  Since uvstat_page() was never declared in any *.h file in 
2017-03-02, I don’t know what you’d make dispatch.o depend on to force a 
rebuild in a case like this, else I’d post a trivial patch to the -dev list.

Thank you for the hint…Trying it now with this message. ;)

Same here - Ebony spam…

That’s really strange…maybe we should start blogging about it to provide
free advertising for them. :-)

OK, thank you. I just wondered if it makes change whether one use
mailing list vs Gmane, but it seems that Gmane is still spam-free by its
own.
