The wiki in the main repo is not really maintained any longer - the project generally prefers the embedded docs approach because those docs partake in the whole versioning/branching mechanism whereas wiki pages are versioned but there is no UI for going to a specific version of a wiki page, and they don't participate in branching, For the time being, feel free to post patches against the files www/*.wiki here and one of the commiters can get them piped it. The easiest way to test local changes to those files is... edit the file you wish and then visit it by starting fossil server or fossil ui and use this URL: http://localhost:8080/doc/ckout/www/index.wiki note the path part ckout - that tells fossil to serve the local copy of that file from your hard drive.

The Contributor License Agreement (CLA) basically says: I recognize that Fossil uses the two-clause BSD license and I hereby release my changes/patches under that same license. It would be good to have a CLA online for documentation changes in addition to code changes, especially if the changes are large. But I am not nearly as strict about documentation as I am with code. Small documentation changes and/or typo fixes do not require a CLA. But we would appreciate a CLA from people who are doing major rewrites. -- D.

This shows the list of changes that have been done and will be commited the next time you run fossil commit. It's a useful command to run before running fossil commit just to check that things are OK BEFOR proceeding. and one mistake: Cancel changes and go back to prevision revision ... For security, since the work file hasn't been checked in, Fossil will prompt you to confirm that you do wish to replace the file. - Fossil doesn't prompt when reverting a file. It simply reminds the user of the undo command, just in case it was a mistake. ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
