Yes, thanks, I was able to commit this way. Hope, the bug will not be hard to 
fix.

Anyway, another obscure case is when the symlink points to a directory. In this
case fossil adds the files of the directory twice - from the original directory 
and from
the symlink. I was not able to make fossil to add to the repository only the 
symlink itself.

Best regards.
