Re: [fossil-users] Fossil Repository Does Not Exist Error
Everyone, Thank you, everything is back to the way it should be. ;-) Concerning the "test-move-repository" I had wished I knew about that before, may be the command should be called "path" instead, which sounds less scary and more obvious of the commands intention. -- Regards, David Baxendale ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users

Re: [fossil-users] Fossil Repository Does Not Exist Error
There's a "test-move-repository" command that does just this. Perhaps it should be promoted to a proper command.

I usually open the _FOSSIL_ file with sqlite3 and update the pointer to the repo db.

[fossil-users] Fossil Repository Does Not Exist Error
I have recently moved all my files to a new machine and the directory structure is slightly different under Windows 7. Now when I execute a fossil status command, fossil reports the repository does not exist or is in an unreadable directory, followed by the old directory name. How do I fix this? -- Regards, David Baxendale Email: david.baxend...@gmail.com ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
