Assuming the anonymous cloner has put his change into BRANCH, then the
command you seek is:
fossil bundle export FILENAME --branch BRANCH
The cloner then emails you FILENAME. Once you get it you can do:
fossil bundle import FILENAME
The imported artifacts are parked "private" or "unpublished" and will not
sync. This gives you an opportunity to examine them and see if you like
them. If you approve you can do one of these things:
fossil bundle import FILENAME -publish
fossil publish BRANCH
And that will "publish" the changes making the syncable and forever
thereafter a part of the project. If you don't like what you see, you can
do one of:
fossil bundle purge FILENAME
fossil purge BRANCH
And that will make the changes cleanly disappear.
All of the above (and more) is under active development in the DBP-workflow
branch of the Fossil source tree. It *seems* to be working, but I feel
confident that a sufficiently determined hacker can still break it. I
would greatly appreciate you testing and suggestions for improvement.
