Re: [fossil-users] submodules
Ok, I think I found the solution. The submodule must be integrated by using fossil open --nested That's not documented, but I'm happy there's a solution. From: tr...@tekwissusa.com Sent: Tuesday, March 15, 2011 3:39 PM To: fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org Subject: [fossil-users] submodules I was trying to add to the discussion about submodules in the archives, but not being a power mailing list user I don’t know how. So I apologize for starting this new thread. /myprj/src/... /ip/... whereas ip.fossil is a wholly independent fossil repository In “/myprj/ip” I ‘d like to execute something like fossil extract VERSION|—latest ip.fossil which would not open the repo, but just extract the files. Doing it that way will of course never allow to make changes to /myprj/ip and propagate them back into ip.fossil, since all connection to the repo has been lost. Update of the ip is only by manually executing again fossil extract ..., which is a critical requirement for me. So the question is, does such an ‘extract’ function exist, I wasn’t able to find anything, but maybe I’m just blind. I guess it would be the same as ‘fossil open’ followed by ‘fossil close’ without the complaint that it’s already within an open tree ‘myprj’.

Re: [fossil-users] submodules
Wow, didn't know about that either. For your original question, the command is not extract but export. As specified, it just creates the files, which don't then contain any marker that they came from fossil.

Oops--thanks for the correction. I must have been having flashbacks to my SVN days. Surprisingly, fossil won't export a copy of the files without repository info. Closest thing is the zip command, which will create a zip of all files at a given revision. You could combine it with an unzip command line utility to achieve a file export, but it's awkward and a little silly. ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
