Still need to keep the Fossil repo backed up.

But yes, I like that Fossil is designed to preserve the history instead of
being used as a tool to "organize" "history".

My point was that many non-Fossil users think that using the VCS as a tool
to "organize" "history" is a great idea.

It is possible to "organize" "history" in Fossil by doing your work on
private branches, then creating "organized" views in your work space and
committing those to trunk and/or release branches. (I have no idea how this
procedure compares to rebase in git and some other VCSs. I've never used
rebase. and while my release branches have only major commits in them, I
don't  do anything special to "organize" them, nor do I make my dev
branches private.)
