Information which some people consider to be sensitive (such as the contact-information) is not stored in the database directly. Instead, a SHA1 hash of the information is stored. There is a separate table in the repository database, the CONCEALED table, that stores a mapping from these hashes back to the original text. Only authorized users are allowed to clone or sync the CONCEALED table, and hence only authorized users are able to see the sensitive information. > > -- > Martijn Coppoolse > > ______________________________**_________________ > fossil-users mailing list > [email protected].**org <[email protected]> > http://lists.fossil-scm.org:**8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/**fossil-users<http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users> > -- D.
