First of all I am not a professional developer, but develop code as part of increasing the efficiency of my work flow. Sometime ago I realized that I needed a more professional developing environment for SCM; however, SVN etc. were far too complicated for my needs. And then I recently discovered Fossil, one executable and one file repository, the perfect solution. So thank you to the developers who had such foresight in the design of Fossil.

I loaded my previous builds for completeness on an annual basis, so I created a branch for each year's final version as shown below

D:\Users\David Baxendale\Development Files\FORTRAN\SimPlot\Code>fossil status repository: D:/Users/David Baxendale/Development Files/FORTRAN/SimPlot/Code/SimPlot.fos local-root: D:/Users/David Baxendale/Development Files/FORTRAN/SimPlot/Code/
server-code:  49b576c87e26ccac60eb4e95ad4c151868a9f423
checkout: 102c10950798ebe068c80641faf765b1601a073b 2005-07-01 17:29:22 UTC child: 8fb65fa0706cd32707b14cde3544f535a320fd7d 2005-07-01 17:30:57 UTC child: e96884212357dd6247670ccc470afd7837d9971f 2007-09-18 17:39:52 UTC child: 7cfca3f7e355fbbb388df8366928f5e417f4b326 2008-07-23 19:39:44 UTC child: 8ae822cd64905fde9a0e1578337357325f1d2d36 2009-01-10 20:27:10 UTC child: e417dc814ff6a26a7b85004da56a26e56675170d 2010-05-01 21:11:11 UTC child: af4db521e5774d7258b0e519c413b48dff2343c7 2011-07-10 08:47:24 UTC
tags:         trunk
comment:      initial empty check-in (user: BaxendaleD)

and created all the tickets for the modifications and bug fixes (which is extensive).

The issue I have is that all the builds have a time line that start at the initial version, that is 2005-07-01 => 2011-07-10, and what I want is for the each branch to start with its on version, i.e., 2011-07-10. How do I do this?

Secondly, half way through the process I moved the code to a sub directory, so the directory in some branches is \SimPlot and some are SimPlot\Code. How do I change in the repository all the \Simplot directories to \SimPlot\Code?

Many thanks in advance for the help.
