The "fossil update" command does a "fossil pull" in autosync mode.  The
"fossil commit" command first does a "fossil pull", then does the check-in,
then does a "fossil push".

This has nothing to do with content.  The sync mechanism in Fossil does not
distinguish between wiki or tickets or checked-in files.  When you sync or
push or pull, it applies that operation to everything.  There is no
mechanism in Fossil that will sync only check-ins or only wiki, etc.  It is
all or nothing.

The issue here is that with "fossil up" you are only doing a "fossil pull"
and a pull does not move content from the local repo to the remote repo, by
design.

And I'm pretty sure that I do NOT want "fossil up" to do an unannounced
push.
