Hello

This is the first time I'm trying Fossil and I'm using the Windows
version (d8221b9863 2011-05-12).

I will be the only user, and the repository will be located on the
same Windows host where the repository is saved.

There are a few of questions to which I found no answer in the wiki:

1. Should the repository be located at the very top of the directory
tree where files will be added and commited?

For instance, if the files I'll be adding/committing live below C:\,
should the repository be C:\myrepo, or is it OK to locate it anywhere
on the hard drive, eg. D:\whatever\lmyrepo?

2. Is it OK to have spaces in the path leading to the repo and the
files, eg. C:\This is a directory\myrepo, and D:\This is where my
files are\some file.txt?

3. Is it possible _not_ to be prompted for a comment when committing a
file? I'd just like to type "fossil commit", and be done with it.

4. Is it possible to open the repository in a DOS box (C:\fossil.exe
open c:\myrepo), and add/commit from a Windows application such as a
text editor?
When I tried this, I got this error: "C:\fossil.exe: not within an
open checkout"

I guess all the commands should be issued within the DOS box.

Thank you.
