[fossil-users] Overwriting binary files on 'update'

2012-03-01 Thread Lluís Batlle i Rossell
Hello,

in fossil 1.21, I've a modified openoffice file. Then I run fossil update, and
it tells me there is a merge conflict with a binary file, that it cannot merge.

What I'm surprised about is that fossil overwrites my local changes with the
incoming ones. And the file with local changes disappears, only available again
on 'fossil undo'.

Should't fossil better leave additional files in the directory, as with the
-baseline, -original, and -merge?

Regards,
Lluís.

Please, correct me if I am wrong, but I noticed that fossil update
also overrides unmanaged files (both binary and text). I am not sure
that their contents are backed up.

fossil update will also bring back files that have been fossil rm'd and
physically removed. It'd be nice to be given the opportunity to abort as
this can be a real pain.
