Why blame? You have to be congratulated!! The markdown-wiki topic was brought in Nov '09 and I jumped to it ~6months later after discovering Fossil. > The reason for that is that it started out as a minimal > proof-of-concept, and then noone has been vocal enough to bring a > feature-request to my attention (except for making absolute links > not-so-absolute). I'm sorry for not being included in the discussion, probably it was during the phase when I was not using Fossil a lot and/or not following mailing list. These days I mostly settled on (light) using of Git, but Fossil's simplicity still fascinates me and that's why I periodically re-evaluating it. I still miss some things like ability to do immediate uncommit after some silly mistakes (like forgetting add/rm some files, wrong message etc.), as well as ability to selectivley scrub unneeded private branches. Sometimes, I also like to be able to rebase and tweak my commits before pushing to the public repo. However, having markdown in wiki brings nice 'pros' to Fossil. > If anything more is needed, I can probably do it, though it might have > to wait a bit until I'm less overwhelmed by stuff that keep my > paychecks coming. For some of my web needs I use Nikola (python static generator) which support python's implementation of markdown (https://pypi.python.org/pypi/Markdown) as well as Pandoc's implementation (e.g. http://oopsmonk.blogspot.com/2013/05/pandocs-markdown-reference.html). I must say that I prefer to use reST for documentation, but for shorter stuff markdown might be good-enough. So, I'll take a closer look and see what I'd consider 'missing features' and report back here.
