The option is
--vfs unix-none
--vfs unix-dotfile
--vfs unix-posix
Etc. You can also do
export FOSSIL_VFS unix-none
Note that if you set unix-none, and then you get to instances of
Fossil running on the same repository at the same time (which can
easily happen if Fossil is running as a server on the machine) then
you risk corrupting the database file and losing content. The same
kind of disaster can happen if you get two versions of Fossil running
at the same time and using different locking protocols. YOU HAVE BEEN
WARNED. NO TEARS!
