The basic point made in the post by Mark Shuttleworth (in 2007 BTW) is a good one. Cleaning up or refactoring is hard to do and ideally an SCM tool helps the process. Tools that behave inconsistent with expectations induce legitimate FUD leading to reluctance to clean up. There might be some areas where Fossil could be improved in this regard. For example, if I clean up and move things around in a Fossil repo and by force of habit do an update before a commit I *lose* some of my clean up effort when Fossil (illogically IMHO) brings back the removed files. A minor setback that chips away at the willingness and enthusiasm developers have towards refactoring.
