Indeed - this is _the_ forum for fossil (aside from the fossil-dev list,
which is relatively low-traffic).

Correct.

Not with the current code. Adding such a facility inherently introduces all
kinds of new failure cases which would have to be handled (remote not
found, various forms of remote responses, authentication (under who's
account does it sync, and how to pass on credentials?), firewalls, proxies,
etc., etc.), and nobody's coded any of that (and AFAIK nobody really wants
to ;).

There IS some support for triggers which can be used for this (to some
degree), but i've got no experience with them. Maybe someone who has used
them will enlighten us on how to do it.
