Hi,

It seems (at least in v1.29) that it is not possible to do a fossil clone with a username and password in the url and automatically remember the password via a command line switch or other approach. What is really interesting is that if you pipe "y" into the fossil clone command, then fossil doesn't even ask to remember the password. It seems that the user must be prompted, which is a problem when scripting!

I've tracked it down in the source code in url.c, function url_parse_local(...) where it explicitly checks isatty(fileno(stdin)) and otherwise doesn't apply the URL_REMEMBER_PW flag at all.

Is there a rationale behind this? Could there be a flag (e.g. -q / --quiet would work!) that can do an automatic "yes" at this point?

Thanks!!!

Andy
