Fossil's primary use is to keep track of changes in your files, it is not a build system perse. If you want to use Visual Studio, why not use something like CMake: that can generate VS files from the description of your programs (CMakeLists.txt files and the like or plain Makefiles if you prefer them). These CMake files can in turn be maintained with Fossil, just as source code.

Is there a way to generate a visual studio solution and project file from the fossil source which I can then load up in visual studio 2015 community edition? Or an alternative: is there a way to generate a debug build with pdbs which I can debug through visual studio? I used to using visual studio for debugging and it would help me to finish my gmerge patch.
