I heartily agree with this... A flag to allow a person (including Anonymous) to make a commit that would automatically go into a new branch like "Patch-1" (each one incrementing the branch number) is (a) better than emailed patches, and (b) better than pull requests. Primarily because it puts it into Fossil so you can use all your standard workflows.
The "Patch-?" branches should not be automatically synced, and if you do a sync with some special flag, it should offer each of the existing patch branches and allow you to agree to sync it, or not. Then there needs to be a way to delete the patch branches (whether included into the trunk or not) ../Dave On 15 June 2018 at 09:23, Olivier R. <m...@grammalecte.net> wrote: > Le 15/06/2018 à 01:32, Chad Perrin a écrit : > >> On Thu, Jun 14, 2018 at 09:59:12PM +0100, Thomas wrote: >> >>> >>> Pull requests are not supported, hence the software can't be used for >>> community driven open source. >>> >> >> The pull request interface on GitHub is a feature of GitHub, not of Git. >> While it would be nice to have a similar feature built into the Fossil >> web UI, doing it the same way would require having a centralized website >> on which to implement it.
