Reading through the fossil documentation about private branches.
It states that There is no way to convert a private branch into
a public branch. But all of the changes associated with the
private branch are folded into the public branch and are hence
visible to other users of the project.
I am confuzzled. Seems the private branch becomes public by
folding into the public branch.
I am inheriting some 20 year old C code for a device that is
being completely redesigned with modern everything. The
algorithms used in the old code required going through many
months of verification and certification (government mandated).
I need to track all changes (I am going to be gut it using a
facsimile of the core algorithm) so I figure this is a good
candidate for using Fossil. They are currently using an ancient
CVS system that, well I could not find a single reference to it
anywhere. So I am going to try to convince them to use a
different system since we are effectively starting from scratch.
So I am back again trying to figure out the details how to use
fossil before I am forced to use some other system. Fossil seems
to be the least painful of the alternatives.
