I'm not seeing a "fossil open" in that sequence up above. The workflow for a new repo is: fossil new (or clone if you're copying another repo) fossil open fossil do-everything-else You'll find full instructions at http://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/doc/tip/www/quickstart.wiki. Sadly the instructions are in the wrong order and mistakenly put the configuration stuff ahead of the opening of the repository, so I can see where the confusion comes in. If I had check-in privileges I'd fix that myself, but sadly I don't. -- "Perhaps people don't believe this, but throughout all of the discussions of entering China our focus has really been what's best for the Chinese people.
