need it to keep running after the user closes the DOS box in which she had typed
"fossil server". Actually, it would even be OK to kill the process when the
DOS box is closed, as long as the process continues running after the user
presses Ctrl-C to shut down the "fossil server" command.

The background process is needed so that we can wait until the entire push/pull
operation completes before invoking the hooks. The background process is also
needed so that a long-running hook does not delay the server from responding to
the client.

I tried Dmitry Chestnykh's solution but i got some trouble, when the called
process does subsequent 'system(...)'-calls - new DOS-boxes are flickering
around.
Then i tried a simple 'start' in the command line for the existing
fossil_system. And i think, it should work.
The sub-process reuses the existing DOS box for outputs and the job is still
running after killing the fossil server. The sub process is killed, when the
DOS box for the original "fossil server" command is closed.
I simply added the following line to the "fossil server" command as a test:
---------------------------------
mxPort = iPort+100;
}
+
+ fossil_system("start /b c:\\Programme\\unxtools\\yes");
#if !defined(_WIN32)
/* Unix implementation */
if( isUiCmd ){
---------------------------------
The option /b activates the reusing of the existing DOS box for stdout.
