indeed, that works, thanks a lot!
I still have some difficulties in understanding the "why" (if not "how",
anymore ...) of this:
* so, without that configure flag, `fossil set' does not know about the
setting, but `fossil help set' and `fossil help mv' talk about it.
question: why is it not available by default in view of the fact that the
default behaviour (off) means the old behaviour of not touching the
checkout during `mv' is preserved anyway, which, I understand, is deemed
desirable (personally, I would argue for changing this at some point)?
* the wording in `fossil help set' seems confusing to me: "compiled with
legacy mv/rm support" to me sounds like "restore the old behaviour which
otherwise is different now". but it seems the other way around, mostly.
(and if the necessity to compile with legacy support is mentioned in
`fossil help set' it might as well provide a hint to use the
`--with-legacy-mv-rm' configure flag.)
not really an issue, but still ...
thx/j
