Fair enough. Just one request then:

Is there already or might there be added a symbolic name for the most
recent remote revision on a given branch? So, for instance, if I develop
on trunk and I want to submit a patch, I could do:

fossil diff --from remote --to current

and get a diff of all non-synced changes?

Sure, I could just make a new branch, but sometimes when I have very
specific changes in mind, I prefer to just make a distinction between my
trunk and someone else's.

Also, how does Fossil handle the case where your change might exactly
implement the patch I submitted? Is it intelligent enough to note that
the changes a remote update would apply coincide exactly with how things
stand now, or would it throw up a bunch of conflicts? Guess that might
be where another branch would come in handy, but it's also a definite
advantage of bundles, in that preserving history handles the case of
merging up with a remote branch.

Thanks.
