It appears that Fossil does not understand "M" lines with the "inline" tag, probably because git-fast-export never generates such lines and we used the output of git-fast-export for testing. "M" lines with "inline" tags are documented by git-fast-import in the file format description, so I suppose they ought to be supported. A quick workaround (prior to us getting this feature working in Fossil) might be to import into git, then immediately turn around and export from git into Fossil. > > Cheers...
