Then you are using fossil for a purpose for which it was not designed.
Lots of people use lots of VCS's for a similar purpose, for which (as

the universe here, but...

Since it is automated, why not automate the same one or two word message
for all the commits? I actually do that, in spite of what I said above,
but I also have a directory with some bits of code in it which may one
day be a program that _is_ designed for that :)

a nut.
