Re: [fossil-users] limited ticketing
I agree. One of the strengths of the fossil ticketing system is it's integration with the scm history, which is not what you would not want for a customer-facing ticketing systems. I suggest using one of the other support management systems for that and keep fossil for internal, development use.

Re: [fossil-users] limited ticketing
If we have granular permissions for tickets, then we should probably also have it for the wiki (view attachments, view history), we should also separate attach and delete for wiki and tickets, and maybe even throw in permissions related to the timeline and files (such as view newest view hitsory, view patch, view diff) and maybe even download zip instead of tar file. Don't forget about tags and even open and closed names. You could EVEN create permissions for each artifact! That would just be easier, because you wouldn't need to worry about the type. OR We could realize that to do this properly would require a good CMS, which fossil is not, and keep it simple. As you can imagine, my vote's for the latter.

I think this could be done with TH1 scripting. From the Fossil web UI, Admin->Tickets. On that page, you can select which of the ticket related pages to edit.. Assuming your ticket schema has a submitter field, you could have something like: if {$login eq $submitter} { things that only the submitter is allowed to do } You could do similar with an assignedto field, as well. ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users

Thanks, Gareth. I knew I'd seen something, but I couldn't remember enough about what it was to even go looking for it. If I understand it correctly from the previous posts to the list, using "fossil open --nested" just allows a nested checkout to live within a parent checkout without confusing fossil; but the two checkouts are essentially separate. In other words, it's like a Subversion svn:external, except that fossil doesn't check it out for you automatically; you have to do that yourself (i.e., by "make getmydependencies" or something like that).

Re: [fossil-users] Nested check-outs
Hi Will, fossil open --nested allows opening a fossil within an existing checkout. This question came up earlier this week as well; it may be worth looking at the archives. Solutions included fossil open --nested and scripting a checkout of external dependencies. Cheers, Gareth On Thu, 17 Nov 2011 04:38:49 -, Will Duquette wrote: Howdy!

[fossil-users] limited ticketing
Hi, is it possible to configure fossil server so, that some clients will be able only submit tickets (and even not see other tickets or maybe see only tickets that they have submitted)? This mode would be useful for customers whom you want to submit bug reports without being able to observe the whole development process.
