(Windows version reduces leading // to /, linux version doesn't). I guess a work-around is to have the server path properly mounted to a drive (windows). >> Also I'd REALLY like to extend the server acting on a directory full of >> repos. >> I'd like to be able to also handle repos in sub-directories. >> fossil clone http://server:8080/repo1 >> fossil clone http://server:8080/subdir/repo2 >If you setup a CGI script on your webserver, you can do what you ask. >There are instructions on the Fossil website. Since I have to do all my server administration myself, and most of the time I don't know what I'm doing, I want to keep it as simple as possible. And that's what's so beautiful about fossil. It's so simple. fossil server /path is all that's needed. Now you're talking about CGI, web-server, scripting and stuff. You're adding just another maintenance headache onto the whole thing. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
