Hi,

Is there a recommended workflow for Fossil to achieve the equivalent of 
SVN's "vendor branches"?

I have a project libB that is a fork of an open source library libA.  
libA is typically released as occasional tarballs.  Some of my changes 
are bug fixes to libA (which I would like to be able to isolate and 
contribute back upstream), which others are new functionality that forms 
libB.

In SVN, CVS, VSS, etc. I would have 3 directories: libA, myLibA (branch 
from libA), and libB (branch from libB).  If I use branches in Fossil in 
the obvious manner, then I can only see one of these three code trees at 
a time, which makes diffs awkward (amongst other things).  I seem to 
spend a lot of time keeping the branch structure in my head when 
navigating the code trees, rather than being able to see it on disk.

Any advice welcome :)

Regards,
Twylite
