 I had a problem doing a checkin (fossil: tree checksum does not match

 when I try to open the local copy:

fossil: content missing for foo/bar/baz

 foo/bar/baz is the path to a file in the repository.

 I'm running:
This is fossil version [73c24ae363] 2010-03-18 14:20:33 UTC


 Any suggestions?


Please send me your repository by private email and I will investigate.

[fossil-users] Not within an open checkout

2010-06-15 Thread ghiù
Hi to all,

this is my very first post to this ML. I'm trying to give fossil a try.

I work on the same project both from work (a Windows environment) and from
my personal computer, a MacOSX box and fossil seems to be have all I need to
keep my project in synch. Other versioning systems fail for various reasons,
one of them being the fact that they don't operate over http and being my
workplace heavily firewalled and protected by proxies, I cannot connect to a
central server (a Linux box I own).

Long story short, I downloaded the latest build for MacOSX and put it in
/usr/local/bin/. I run without a problem fossil new test and it created a
new archive.
I then tried fossil ui and I got a not within an open checkout. Now,
every command I try to execute (status, commit, add...), from whatever
position within the filesystem (root, my home, the dir with the archive, a
dir upper or a dir under it etc) gives me this error. I also tried to remove
the .fossil file it creates in home, all without a result.

Any help?
Thanks.

I'm not seeing a fossil open in that sequence up above.

The workflow for a new repo is:

fossil new (or clone if you're copying another repo)
fossil open
fossil do-everything-else

You'll find full instructions at
http://www.fossil-scm.org/index.html/doc/tip/www/quickstart.wiki.  Sadly the
instructions are in the wrong order and mistakenly put the configuration
stuff ahead of the opening of the repository, so I can see where the
confusion comes in.  If I had check-in privileges I'd fix that myself, but
sadly I don't.

That helped, thanks. Indeed the manual should be a bit more explicit about
the correct workflow.
