by all means, if there is some activity (pulling and/or pushing), report it. but the case i was referring to is when i am pushing nothing, and pulling nothing. as fossil returns to shell right away, i think the outcome is clear. regarding the network timeouts, no program reports them until they time out :] -f -- if you live long enough, it will kill you... _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
