Howdy, folks,
I'm pretty new to fossil (less than a month), but I'm a veteran of other
SCM systems, and I've quickly gotten Fossil pretty well tuned in to the
way I want to work. So I tried using the configuration export and
configuration import commands to make a "template" configuration. It
worked just fine when I did it on Linux, including all of my customizations.
However, I normally work in a cloned and autosynced copy of that
repository. The clone lives on Windows XP. When I export the
configuration from the clone on XP, the output file does not have any of
my customizations, and only one user.
I'm using the version 1.25 binaries posted to fossil-scm.org a few days
ago. I created the repository with the 1.24 binaries from last October,
also downloaded from fossil-scm.org.
Does this sound like a bug, or like I'm doing something wrong? It seems
pretty difficult to mess up "fossil open REPOS", "fossil conf export all
FILE", but I've messed up simpler stuff before.
I'd also like to suggest that the configuration export/import process
not bring over the password hashes of users. I'd suggest that export
not emit the pw hashes at all, and that import ignore them if present.
Import would create a default password for any new users, and display
it, like it does for the new and init commands. Passwords for existing
users would be left alone. If I can get some time, I'll poke around in
the source and see if I can come up with a patch.
