Nope. Fossil's data is, by design, immutable. There is a mechanism called
"shunning" to stop syncing of specific artifacts but that is intended for
cases like wrongly licensed data, security-relevant information, etc., and
is supposed to be a "last resort." It not the right tool for what you want
to do (fossil doesn't have a tool for that, by design).
