This article is about fossil usage only. The author say nothing about how
cool and rock solid fossil is. I expected to see some facts from
fossil-v-git.wiki. Really upset with the article as it seems to only
confuse Russian community.

My summary: Some people get it and understand why Fossil is an
interesting idea. Others (perhaps due to different backgrounds or work
styles or expectations) cannot seem to grasp why anyone would ever consider
using Fossil.

It is possible to organize history in Fossil by doing your work on
private branches, then creating organized views in your work space
and committing those to trunk and/or release branches.

Is there really a need for a backup if you have offsite fossils to which
you regularly sync?
Probably not.

Repo backups saved me in this scenario. A developer did a fossil add *.* by
mistake and committed. Well, that bloated our repo size tenfold. We knew
quickly because push/pulls were taking too long. A query to this mailing
list mentioned shun's and rebuilds, but I had already made some poor hacks

Can you provide a url directly to 'fx shun add' documentation?
Or do I have to install this to become Armed Dangerous? :)
