The old username will still be in the repo, but the modified name will appear on the timeline. The simplest way to issue a name-change tag is to use the web interface. Go to the check-in you want to modify. Click on "edit". Then enter the new username at the appropriate place on the form and press "Submit". > > Thank you very much. > > Regards, > Ma Kai > > _______________________________________________ > fossil-users mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users > -- D.
