Welcome to Fossil!

About a month ago i moved to a new house and didn't have internet for the
first couple days. i was able to tether my mobile to my PC, but the
connection was so poor that i couldn't get a single web page to finish
loading. Fossil was the only tool which could complete any requests. My
suspicion is that it was largely due to fossil's relatively small/efficient
transport mechanism, which was in small enough chunks that it could
(perhaps with TCP-level retries) eventually finish. Being able to work
offline was of course very useful, too, and pushes to the remote repos
typically didn't transmit more than 10kb.


Anybody knows of something that allows tracking and answering tickets from

Tracking can, to some degree, be done with the RSS feed. Pass
tkt=TICKET_UUID to /ticket.rss to get the changes for a specific ticket.
