3 has now been implemented in the roy-export branch. Turned out to be quite easy. A database rebuild is required though as an extra field has been added to the tagxref table. This means that my git <-> fossil bridge is now fully working - for my normal work flow at least. Summary of changes from trunk: * tag committer is exported * import user matching works via contact info * exported branch and tag names are no longer mangled * no more silent renaming of master vs trunk [1] * tag importing actually works for git * tag comments are imported and exported [2] Testing now welcome. Roy [1] There is still the issue of the silent trunk in fossil. I don't know if what I've done here is correct. Artifacts look like a bug, but explicit renaming of master -> trunk works around it. [2] You can also see the comments in the timeline, which is nice. But there currently isn't a UI in fossil itself to enter a tag comment. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
