Sorry, forget this. I remember now that "fossil mv" will not make the history of the old filename follow the new filename. So my more complicated way would give the same result as the way Ron Wilson describe. Note: This history is still on the repository, but not just under the new filename.. -- Martin G. _______________________________________________ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
