Fossil's all-in-one idea is starting to grow on me. Last night I read
about branching and tagging, which sparked a thought on how to do a
multi-project setup. I'f tested it and it works superficially, but I'm
wondering if there's something inherent in what I'm doing that makes it
a bad idea.

I created and opened an empty repository. Next, I created branches
called project_1 and project_2 based off of the empty commit. I could
then successfully open/checkout project_1 and project_2.

I then committed different files to each, each having different names
and contents. After having done so, I could open projects based ontheir
branch name and see the respective contents of that project. The only
immediately obvious gotcha is that opening with no version seems to give
you the project with the latest commit, but in this multi-project case
I'm fine with undefined behavior for people not following directions on
how to use the tools. :)

It also then occurs to me that someone can still commit to the trunk
branch. Is it possible to delete trunk, or is that what closed tags are
for? Thinking the latter, but I want to confirm my understanding.

Other than tracking multiple projects in a single wiki/timeline not
working for some use cases, is there anything that makes such a solution
a bad idea?
