Thanks to both you and Andy for your explanations.

fossil zip seems like a great solution for what I need.

Now, if there was a matching ‘unzip’ to do the hypothetical unzipping and serve 
the files as is, it would be even greater!  (The name ‘unzip’ only as a mental 
opposite to ‘zip’, not to suggest than an unzipping operation should follow the 
zipping but to skip simply over the zipping part.)

Thanks.

  Does Fossil  have an option  that exports  a particular revision  of the
  repository  similar to  how CVS  export  works? CVS  export will  export
  either HEAD or an explicit revision to a named directory without all the
  CVS control directories/files in the export.

  As far as I can tell, the only way to get it is:

  fossil open REPO VERSION
  fossil close


Or:

fossil zip trunk my.zip

resp. tar.
