[fossil-users] How to export ala CVS?
Hello, 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 Thanks, Andy -- TAI64 timestamp: 400053e668de ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users

Re: [fossil-users] How to export ala CVS?
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.

As far as I can tell, the only way to get it is: fossil open REPO VERSION fossil close In case you didn't see it, it looks like from the command line you can use this: == $ fossil help tarball Usage: fossil tarball VERSION OUTPUTFILE [--name DIRECTORYNAME] [-R|--repository REPO] Generate a compressed tarball for a specified version. If the --name option is used, its argument becomes the name of the top-level directory in the resulting tarball. If --name is omitted, the top-level directory named is derived from the project name, the check-in date and time, and the artifact ID of the check-in. == Or if you are talking to the web service, you can do this: wget localhost:8080/tarball/foo.tgz?uuid=VERSION (where I think VERSION can be a tag name too). -- Eric A.

Thus said Stephan Beal on Sat, 09 Aug 2014 20:31:48 +0200: fossil zip trunk my.zip Yes, that will work just perfectly fine for what I need, thanks.
