The attached patch should work for you. In my testing here, it chokes when it tries to close a checkout that I have since abandoned without properly closing it first, but it sounds like you never do that, so this limitation shouldn’t bother you. Does anyone know how I can make Fossil forget that it once opened myreop.fossil in ~/abandoned/directory? I tried fossil all ignore -c ~/abandoned/directory but it doesn’t help. My new “fossil all close -f” command continues to try to close it, but fails because the directory isn’t there any more. > P.S. I know many people don’t bother closing the fossil at all.

The option I choose is simply to wait to push until I get back to civilization. (Meaning: A place where I can get wifi. :) ) Although Fossil *can* push to two different locations, I only use the optional URL parameter to “push” when my canonical central repository gets moved, or when the cloned Fossil file gets moved. It’s a rare operation, not something I might expect to do several times a week. As to your “not reachable from the Internet” comment, VPN technology is rock-solid these days. It is quite possible to attach your remote laptop to the internal LAN, with security adequate for almost any normal purpose. (i.e. Don’t use a VPN to allow remote access to a nuclear missile silo.) If you’re worried about the security of your LAN with VPN access allowed, you’re probably worrying about the wrong threat. I’d be more worried about losing that presumably-unencrypted USB key, for one thing. If you don’t like VPNs, sshd configured to accept only keys, and listening on a nonstandard port, possibly obscured with port-knocking would also work. You can tunnel arbitrary ports through SSH, creating a kind of “lite” VPN.
