I downloaded the lastest Windows fossil build tonight and am giving DVCS another shot. Some notes:
1. I like the fact that I could --date-override the initial create date stamp. 1a. I wish that I could --date-override a commit at the command line so that I didn't have to edit the date stamp via the web interface later. 1b. If you don't type the date stamp format just right, fossil will crash trying to display the time line in the web interface. In my case I typed "8:12:23" instead of "08:12:23" for the edited time, omitting the leading 0. 2. I am color blind. The color coding of bullet points in the "Edit User" pages explaining which marks indicate what is practically worthless to me (I spent a while staring at them trying to figure out what the difference was; I'm not complaining, it's just my burden, and I'm fortunately to not have worse burdens, really). I mention this only as a usability issue for someone to consider. I really don't know what would be better, and hate to be one of those people that sounds like "accommodate my disability even though it works for most people just fine!" Some obvious alternatives that pop into my head are to use multiple bullet shapes instead of just color coding the same shape or to use subscript or superscript digits or some such. 3. I would be happy to take a stab at modifying the source to implement the stuff above, and I understand there is some sort of copyright assignment or waiver form to be filled out... If someone could forward that my way I would appreciate it. SDR
