In git you can refer to a particular file using:

I'd like to know more about this as well. As I understand it you can nest
fossil repositories, I haven't tried it yet, but AFAIK you can have a
nested checkout within an existing checkout, and you can open it with the
fossil open --nested command.

I had a problem yesterday where I was unable to opne any of my fossil
