As a newbie Fossil user, after reading

    https://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/doc/trunk/www/branching.wiki

and, specifically, this sentence:

I was (mis)lead to believe that what the OP did might somehow work
(well, actually I was skeptic, so I tried on a test repository).

Maybe, the sentence above could be complemented with an example of how
to do that and how *not* to do it (e.g., explaining what the effect of
adding a 'trunk' tag to a random check-in is and why it should not be
done).
