Re: [fossil-users] Status of the hidden tag
Hi all, My apologies for being noisy with this. I think it was unclear what I was specifically asking. I don't shun things, but there are times where I'd like to clean up the main timeline view for public (aka customer) consumption. I can see that adding a 'hidden' tag is suggested as a better alternative to shunning. My questions are: - Can I add the hidden tag to a check in? If not, what can I add it to? - Should I add it from the web interface or do I need to add it from the cli with the --raw option? - Does adding it do anything at this time? - If not, is this still a planned feature or should I forget I read about it? And maybe should the wording on /shun be updated?

Yep, that would work. I could also, since I was thinking specifically of using the RSS feed, maybe cobble something together out of the JSON api -- basically just a new version of timeline.rss with any hidden checkins removed.

Food for thought, thanks. It might interest you to hack on libfossil, which will allow customized apps/mini-apps like that to be quickly thrown together. As a concrete example, here's a custom timeline implemented using the script bindings for libfossil: [stephan@host:~/cvs/fossil/f2/th1ish]$ ./th1ish timeline.th1ish -- -n=4 The 4 most recent timeline event(s) for /home/stephan/cvs/fossil/f2/.fslckout: ci @ 2013-08-09 23:20:24 [423842eb262c] by [stephan] in branch [trunk] doc updates w @ 2013-08-09 22:33:28 [7a2e57c50e8e] by [stephan] Changes to wiki page [home] ci @ 2013-08-09 22:29:49 [78bf9244bd16] by [stephan] in branch [trunk] Changed return semantics of fsl_list_reserve(), for consistency (old semantics were copy/pasted).

[fossil-users] Status of the hidden tag
From fossil's /shun page: Do not shun artifacts merely to remove them from sight - set the hidden tag on such artifacts instead. The only other reference I could find while searching this list was a note from drh (circa 2009 or so?) noting that it had not been implemented yet. Is this still the case? I just tried, via the web interface, adding a hidden tag to a checkin on one of my mistake branches and the timeline still showed the item.
