Those are probably not interface changes, but here are few things I'd
like to see in Fossil 2.0:

a) Rollback for safe usage when one does not do auto-sync or when code is
not pushed out into the wild universe.

b) ability to push/pull single branches

c) some aliasing mechanism so that user can create aliases for commands
invoked with common options, e.g, ability to define 

cip = ci --private


At the moment I cannot think about anything else which I'd like to see
in Fossil to have all desired features presented in a superiorly simple
package. ;)

Stuff like incremental import/export might be handy for those having
need to interoperate with other DVCS-es, but probably it's not so easy
due to design decisions in Fossil.

As far as I am concerned, I'm simply sold on Fossil's simplicity and
will use it for our next open-source project and if 2.0 will solve some
of the a) - c) items, it would be terrific!!!


Sincerely,
Gour
