Fossil doesn't really give you integrity in the sense that a commit by a given username was really done by that person. As such I would strongly advice against doing this. You can protect against that with signing every commit, but in that case you can just require a clear-signed version of your copyright assignment as well. For practical reasons, it is useful to have that in paper as well, but that's a different issue :) Joerg _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
