indeed, that works, thanks a lot!

I still have some difficulties in understanding the why (if not how,  
anymore ...) of this:


* so, without that configure flag, `fossil set' does not know about the  
setting, but `fossil help set' and `fossil help mv' talk about it.
question: why is it not available by default in view of the fact that the  
default behaviour (off) means the old behaviour of not touching the  
checkout during `mv' is preserved anyway, which, I understand, is deemed  
desirable (personally, I would argue for changing this at some point)?


* the wording in `fossil help set' seems confusing to me: compiled with  
legacy mv/rm support to me sounds like restore the old behaviour which  
otherwise is different now. but it seems the other way around, mostly.  
(and if the necessity to compile with legacy support is mentioned in  
`fossil help set' it might as well provide a hint to use the  
`--with-legacy-mv-rm' configure flag.)


not really an issue, but still ...

thx/j

[fossil-users] `fossil set mv-rm-files' throws error no such setting: mv-rm-files in 1.33 [18fc492a95]

[j. van den hoff]

the new `mv-rm-files' setting is not working for me as per subject of this  
mail. what am I missing? do I need to use some compile time flag (wouldn't  
think so ...)?


thx/j

ps: if it matters, I see this on a macosx machine.

./configure --with-legacy-mv-rm 

should do the trick.
