 When I sign a commit, it can mean multiple things:
 1) I wrote this (authentication)
 2) I approve this (authorization)

 In case 1, we have a one-to-one and immutable correspondence between
 signature and commit artifact. This signature is the one used to pin
 the blame on someone if you find a backdoor in the code :-(

 In case 2, there can be multiple signatures, some after the fact.
 These could be used to keep track of code reviews and/or manager
 approvals.

 Now If I'm signing your type 2 signature, what does that actually
 mean? I approve of you approving this? Signing type 1 signatures is
 just the 'authorization' type signature.

Yes, it would be an additional level of aproval. But that's a process
concern. Allow signing other signatures enables more types of
processes.

[fossil-users] Allowing REMOTE_USER auth from the command line?

2012-05-29 Thread Mike Meyer
I found a number of people asking about this, but none of them seemed
to have gotten an answer...

Is there some way to set the use REMOTE_USER for authentication
setting from the command line (or more accurately, a script)? I could
just create a configured empty repository and copy that, but that
seems like I'm asking for trouble.

   Thanks,
   mike

echo replace into config(name,value) values('remote_user_ok',1) | fossil
sql -R $repository_filename
