When you clone a repository a new admin password is created, it's showed in stdout. This is the output of a clone from fossil: camibar% fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org/fossil myclone.fossil Bytes Cards Artifacts Deltas Sent: 53 1 0 0 Received: 4000569 11044 1172 4361 Sent: 71 2 0 0 Received: 4496529 9283 1740 2862 Sent: 57 95 0 0 Received: 4000227 8779 1329 3067 Sent: 57 1 0 0 Received: 4000245 4733 442 1927 Sent: 57 1 0 0 Received: 4026975 3664 445 1389 Sent: 57 1 0 0 Received: 4505409 1610 377 430 Sent: 57 1 0 0 Received: 645979 270 73 61 Total network traffic: 1732 bytes sent, 25677066 bytes received Rebuilding repository meta-data... 100.0% complete... project-id: CE59BB9F186226D80E49D1FA2DB29F935CCA0333 server-id: bb19027832ccec8ec34290adc124cabd90be8bb1 admin-user: gowen (password is "d30ccf") As you see, there's a new admin user with a new password. This way you are the admin of your clone. If you open the repository and list the users you get: camibar% fossil user list anonymous Anon developer Dev gowen nobody Nobody reader Reader As you see the user data is not populated from the original repository using clone (in timeline view you see users drh, jan.nijtmans, stephan and others). Perhaps what you want is a simply raw copy of the repository file, it will keep all users and other sensitive information and after that you can use sync, or pull&push. For now there's not a globlal admin user or global users that maintains in all clones. Perhaps in a svn like closed environment it has sense this kind of global users, the global admin will be the same for every clone and only him/her/its can admin and dominate all clones, like a sauron's ring ;) HTH > Dave > _______________________________________________ > fossil-users mailing list > fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org > http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users --- --- Eduardo Morras <emorr...@yahoo.es> _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
