It is equivalent to doing: fossil commit -f --branch Minimal So if you have fossil configured to ask for the PGP signature when you commit (which is off by default) then it shouldn't be asking for the PGP signature when you do the "branch new". If it is asking for PGP signatures, that's probably a (minor) bug. I never do "fossil branch new" myself - which is why I've never noticed this. > > On 14 November 2011 11:32, Stephan Beal wrote: > >> On Mon, Nov 14, 2011 at 12:17 PM, David Bovill >> wrote: >> >>> *Empty Folders* >>> When switching between branches, files are removed but empty folders are >>> left hanging around.

Re: [fossil-users] Trying out fossil: two issues with branches and empty folders
Thanks for that. Is the behaviour I am seeing for creating new branches using: fossil branch new "Minimal" trunc normal (always asking for a pgp signature), or am I making a syntax error somewhere? I've just upgraded to the latest build and ran "fossil all rebuild", but get the same behaviour?

If you want to get rid of empty ones, one way to do this in Unix is: find . -type d | xargs rmdir Notes: a) rmdir will refuse to delete non-empty dirs, so the above will likely spit out harmless warnings for non-emtpy dirs. b) spaces and whatnot in the names will break the above (how best/easiest to fix it depends partly on whether you're using GNU find or not). -- - stephan beal http://wanderinghorse.net/home/stephan/ ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
[fossil-users] Trying out fossil: two issues with branches and empty folders
Hello I've been trying out fossil, and cam across two things so far that don't seem quite right. Could anyone advise if I am doing something wrong? *Creating a branch* When I use: fossil commit --branch "New Branch" - m "Creating a new branch" a new branch is created without a prompt, but when I use: fossil branch new "Another Branch" trunk I get prompted for my gpg password? fossil settings clearsign is set to default, and setting it to "off" makes no difference. *Empty Folders* When switching between branches, files are removed but empty folders are left hanging around. Empty folders also do not show up with "fossil extras". I'm looking to switch between branches, and not have separate checkouts, but need to avoid these empty folders. What's the syntax / best way to do this? I could I guess script something to delete all the files before checking out a branch, but this seems ugly? ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
