I've always had to go to the VCS itself (or, when using Hg or SVN on Windows, TortoiseHg or TortoiseSVN), so lack of merging in libfossil might not be a big issue for creating Fossil plug-ins for IDEs. A GUI for Fossil would benefit from merge support in libfossil, but could work around it. I'll think about taking over libfossil. My main concern is that my employer's legal department won't allow me to sign the Fossil copyright assignment document.
