We use a fossil repo to track configuration files on an embedded system 
(Asterisk PBX, etc.).

Compatibility between fossil versions far more important to us than any 
practical issue with SHA1.  Users can upgrade and revert firmware, possibly 
containing any version of Fossil.

BTW, I just committed Fossil 2.0 for our next release.  We do appreciate the 
option to use SHA3 when we decide to.

Thanks the world-class project, Fossil.

Lonnie
