coming back to this (the question whether or not there are `fossil'
options like `--user'). my interest in this question is related to this
project
http://fossil.0branch.com/fsl
where the wrapper script `fsl' which can be used as a transparent drop-in
replacement for the `fossil' command (

it _is_ bad that options like `--date-override' are not comprehensively

It is for fossil's original intended audience ;). But, yeah, i admit that
it's not ideal.
Tell you what: look around
One of the problems is that the help given by fossil help isn't
always complete. For example the help for checkin (fossil help ci), doesn't
list the --date-override or --user-override options, even though they appear to
be accepted. The same appears to be the case for the branch command.

I would agree here, it's not at all clear. Even when you know there is a
--user option, then the fossil output isn't clear:

fossil: current directory is not within an open checkout
# OK

hi,
I just encountered the need to do something like
fossil --user joedoe ci
after trying `fossil ci' failed, `fossil' recommended to use the --user
flag. this flag seems nowhere to be mentioned in the builtin help pages
(I scanned all pages for the commands displayed by `fossil help -a'). I
