I haven't been making many new repos lately, so I got a shock when I set one up and tried to do a checkin via Emacs.

It turns out that the vc-fossil.el file assumes that the local housekeeping will be in ./_FOSSIL, so the change that defaults to .fslckout in version [432306beca] leaves Emacs unable to figure out that it's in an open checkout.

This is trivial to fix on the user side. The quickest fix is probably 'ln -s .fslckout _FOSSIL_', after which everything works fine. The best fix (no holy warrior commentary) is probably to def-custom the file name in the vc module.

Apologies if this has been covered, but I didn't find anything in the archives, so I thought I'd mention it for the sake of the other 2 1/2 emacs & fossil users out there...
