Re: [fossil-users] Fossil and Emacs

[Venkat Iyer]

Jacob,

Thanks for the thanks!

A lot of folks in my team have used emacs with fossil  (we're still on 24.5
though), and other than annotate, pretty
much everything has worked beautifully.Since we work with large
multi-continent repositories, our effectiveness
using fossil inside emacs has been much better than all the previous scms.
 pcvs (with cvstrac) and svn (with
no web i/f) were the other ones we used before.   We haven't used GIT
because of the ease of fossil
installation (across continents) coupled with the built-in issue tracking.

If you know of specific features in magit that are lacking in vc-fossil, do
let us know (or file tickets on chiselapp),
and we'll try to add it in.

Regards

-Venkat

Re: [fossil-users] Fossil and Emacs

[Paul Onions]

Hi Venkat,

That was a quick response!  Good to know the project is still active.  
I've tested the login and it works, thanks.


I'm hoping to be able contribute more to the project as I find my way 
around Fossil.  I have written some Emacs Lisp in other projects, and 
it's something I tend to dip in and out of as time and interest permits, 
though I would certainly not say I'm an expert!


Looking forward to helping out,
Paul

I haven't yet switched to emacs 25 (will do that over the holidays

I will also github this..

Try contacting avanv...@pragmatic-c.com
. That's the only email
address I could find amongst any of the repositories owned by
the same user as emacs-fossil.

[fossil-users] Fossil and Emacs

[Paul Onions]

Hello All,

I'm new to Fossil, but as a heavy Emacs user the first thing I tried to 
do was to use Fossil from within Emacs.  I found the 'vc-fossil' package 
on MELPA, but when I installed it I found it didn't work -- further 
investigation led me to the following repository:-


  https://chiselapp.com/user/venks/repository/emacs-fossil

where I could see that the vc-fossil backend had not been updated for 
Emacs 25.  So I created a ticket with a patch (then appended a better 
patch that maintained backward compatibility).  I then realized that the 
MELPA build recipe wasn't actually pointing to this repository, but to a 
Git clone of it in the emacsorphanage on github, so thinking it wasn't 
maintained any more I cloned that repository too, applied my patch, and 
issued a pull request.


So now I'm wondering, is this project actively maintained anymore?  If 
so then I think we need to mirror it as a Git repository (because it 
seems MELPA does not support Fossil anymore), and then point MELPA to it.


Also, I have a clone on chiselapp.com that includes my patch and adds 
support for renamed files.  It's marked as private but can still be 
browsed-to directly at:-


  https://chiselapp.com/user/pdo/repository/emacs-fossil

where my additions are in the 'pdo' branch.
