Use "fossil open --empty ....."

$ fossil open --help
    Usage: fossil open FILENAME ?VERSION? ?OPTIONS?

    Open a connection to the local repository in FILENAME.  A checkout
    for the repository is created with its root at the working directory.
    If VERSION is specified then that version is checked out.  Otherwise
    the latest version is checked out.  No files other than "manifest"
    and "manifest.uuid" are modified if the --keep option is present.

    Options:
      --empty           Initialize checkout as being empty, but still connected
                        with the local repository. If you commit this checkout,
                        it will become a new "initial" commit in the repository.
      --keep            Only modify the manifest and manifest.uuid files
      --nested          Allow opening a repository inside an opened checkout
      --force-missing   Force opening a repository with missing content
