[fossil-users] Xekri with small side-by-side diff
Hello All,
Has anyone noticed if the Xekri doesn't pickup any modifications to its CSS?
The xx-small sidebyside diff is too small for me so I modify it by
just removing the xx- from the default and save, but when testing the
Xekri skin, the change didn't do anything.
My change:
}
/* side-by-side diff display (column-based) */
table.sbsdiffcols {
width: 90%;
border-spacing: 0;
font-size: small;
}
Thanks,
jungle

Re: [fossil-users] Veracity Version control
I'd say that his problem is to use a DVCS with lots of data in binary files (game assets). He's bound to run into trouble even with mercurial. The idea of keeping everything is seducing and works extremely well for source code because it's small and is easily deltaized and compressed, but it's just not practical for large amounts of binary data. Where I work (on some big open world game), we don't even store very revision of binary files, only a dozen or so, and the older ones are discarded. Our VCS is perforce, it allows to setup this kind of rule per file type so we can say things such as only keep 10 revisions of png files. The metadata for all revisions are kept, but the data itself is thrown away.

I just experimented with a new repo Even if nobody has no privileges, anonymous can login. It appears that it is still locked up as there are no useful links in the navigation, and the home page redirects to the login page. However anonymous does have some privileges not inherited from nobody (hmncz) and these can be used by directly typing in the appropriate URLs. I have not tested everything, but I have verified the biggest weakness: anonymous can download a zip archive using the /zip url. The user administration page says: No login is required for user nobody. The capabilities of the nobody user are inherited by all users, regardless of whether or not they are logged in. To disable universal access to the repository, make sure that the nobody user has no capabilities enabled. The password for nobody is ignored. If you like, you can explicitly move nobody's privileges to anonymous so that anonymous login is required. You would do this to give every human access but block spiders. Login is required for user anonymous but the password is displayed on the login screen beside the password entry box so anybody who can read should be able to login as anonymous. On the other hand, spiders and web-crawlers will typically not be able to login. Set the capabilities of the anonymous user to things that you want any human to be able to do, but not any spider.

[fossil-users] Fixing search results
So no reactions about search changes suggestions? It would be good to fix 3. and 4. at least, if 1. is too difficult. (5. is for further discussion) S. From: Steve Stefanovich Sent: Wednesday, 11 March 2015 14:18 To: Fossil SCM user's discussion Subject: Displaying new search results The new search functionality is awesome and quick - thanks, drh. It is a huge step forward to make Fossil usable for non-programmers, i.e. GUI-only users (managers, testers, documentation writers). It's not quite there yet, IMHO. drh - and other valued contributors - what do you think about fixing or improving the following: (Fossil 1.31 Win binary, /search page) 1. How about displaying the search results in table with sortable columns, similar to /brlist and ticket reports? Suggested columns would be mtime, type (doc/check-in/ticket etc.), creator username, filename (wiki title, ticket subject) and search hit snippet. (Add commit hash if 5. below is implemented). This would cater for much more common use case where you can't remember - or don't know - the 'unique enough' search keyword(s) to get relevant hits, but you do know a person who updated the content or roughly when it was done. By sorting on columns you can quickly zoom in on what's relevant even if there are lots of search hits due to common keyword. 2. Include search on full path filenames too. Sometimes I'm interested in specific file, but remember only roughly what it is called or where is it located. This would be even more useful if search can traverse commits and show deleted/renamed versions as well; sometimes I know there was a file with 'foo' in its name that I can't find anymore because someone has deleted or renamed it. 3. If the file extension is not wiki, the hyperlink to go to contains the first line of the file instead of the filename. So if I enable search of the source code by adding, say *.c in search admin page, instead of the full path filenames being displayed, I get the first line of the comment or copyright notice. It should be full path filename. 4. The search result hyperlinks should have the ?mimetype=text/plain suffix always set, otherwise if they are not wikis, then they get served as downloads. It is more conceivable that I'd want to look at the file content instead. If I need to download, I can always quickly delete the suffix and get it. 5. Search over past commits. This probably deserves a separate discussion on its own. I hope that if it can be invoked with params that limit the keyword search on file extension, tag, date or number of hits, it can work fast enough even as full text search. The challenge would be how to display the context for different use cases. Thanks for Fossil, it is really useful software.

Normalize.css is MIT licensed - at least I think so[2] - and is the baseline for many CSS frameworks. Obviously, Normalize.css is not my own work so I could not grant/share copyright on behalf of the Normalize.css authors with Hwaci.

There is a long-standing tradition of building on the works of others and it's not clear to me how that dovetails with Fossil's CLA. For example, I'm working on a theme for which I am using Normalize.css[1] to ensure I start off at a consistent point across browsers. Normalize.css is MIT licensed - at least I think so[2] - and is the baseline for many CSS frameworks. I think it is sufficient to include the Normalize MIT license statement in the CSS source text. If I'm reading it correctly, that satisfies all requirements of the MIT license. Obviously, Normalize.css is not my own work so I could not grant/share copyright on behalf of the Normalize.css authors with Hwaci. And my inquiry is not just about a Normalize.css dependency, but it serves as a good example. I would appreciate any guidance you could provide. -J [1]: https://necolas.github.io/normalize.css/ [2]: https://github.com/necolas/normalize.css/blob/master/LICENSE.md -- D.

But maybe what you're saying is that something post-1.27 to support that caused other problems. Version 1.29 introduced changes in the way the fossil init command constructed a repository, which violated assumptions about the repository layout that version 1.27 and earlier had made, apparently. I am currently fuzzy on the details. I have not yet freed up enough time to dig deeper into the issue. We know that if you stick to use the latest versions of Fossil everything will work fine. I don't yet know the specific cause of the confusion in version 1.27. I have important clients who are requesting expedited enhancements to SQLite right now and I need to deal with those requests first, but I will get back to a detailed analysis of this problem as quickly as I can. -- D.

Re: [fossil-users] How to fix parallel timeline
No I copied the script that creates the fossils directly into that email, and apart from the warning in red, the instructions to students are unchanged. The odd student might do something different, but most will have done only and exactly what the instructions say. ../Dave On 12 March 2015 at 13:25, Andy Bradford amb-fos...@bradfords.org wrote: Thus said Tontyna on Thu, 12 Mar 2015 11:40:32 +0100: 1.

Does this still happen if you add files prior to cloning? The repo I created with 1.30 contained one file but as I said: after open (seemingly successfully because I got no warnings) the local root was empty besides the _FOSSIL_ database. Don't know what `fossil rebuild` does with the repository (downgrading 1.30 to 1.27? How? What has `clone` done already?) but the parallel timeline definitely has something to do with the initial commit -- the clone contains 1 checkin, the above mentioned file (btw. Dave's 'default setup' files). Maybe when Fossil 1.27 sees the 1 it thinks: Oh, that's a repo containing nothing but the initial empty commit which we abandoned in version 1.30 but I don't know nuthin about 1.30. and gets tangled up. Because surprise! When I did the same with an EMPTY master repository or a master containing MORE THAN ONE commit -- no parallel timeline. Everything is working as expected. Except of course autosync fails when committing: Error: database schema is out-of-date on the server -- I'm wondering why your students who apparently read Fossil's output (and did a `rebuild` accordingly) didn't notify you of that. Or did you turn off autosync? Q: Is it worth investigating this issue? How could/should one make previous versions forward-compatible? Current and future versions could probably refuse to rebuild a repo with a newer schema... To reproduce Dave's timeline I was happy to still get Fossil 1.27 from the download page, but --- I think Fossil 1.30 should be removed from there or at least be tagged as don't use it with newer repos. - Tontyna ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
[fossil-users] Google code shutting down
Hello All, If no one has heard this yet: Google Code is to join the long list of Google projects that have been consigned to the dustbin of history. The open source project hosting service will no longer be accepting new project submissions as of today, will no longer be accepting updates to existing projects from August 24, and will be closed entirely on January 25, 2016. http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2015/03/google-to-close-google-code-open-source-project-hosting/ Just another reason to use Fossil since you run it yourself and its super easy.

[fossil-users] Veracity Version control
Hello All, Not that I'm even remotely interested in project, but I thought I'd share it because it's so similar to Fossil: http://veracity-scm.com/ I'm thinking it's a dead project as there are no releases for nearly two years and the mailing list is dead. From the little information on the site, it may have some kind of project management functionality built in but other than that, Fossil looks like the much better offering.

[fossil-users] How to fix parallel timeline
I have several students who, through some problem while cloning the fossil I created for them, created a parallel timeline. (see screenshot) I want to merge them, but fossil merge says there's no head to merge. The commits by the student are on the right and are not tagged as trunk, but tagging them as such doesn't seem to help. Using --baseline in merge didn't help either. Any help to merge these timeline much appreciated. ../Dave ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users

The one guy behind it also wrote a book about VCSs called Version Control By Example http://ericsink.com/vcbe/ that compares a given situation (team working on files, merges, conflicts/resolution, etc.) with each different VCS and how they compare. It also gives a lot of VCS theory about how they work and common terminology. Fossil is mentioned in one sentence, basically saying it is interesting with new ideas. I think Veracity could have gotten a decent amount of traction if it wasn't essentially abandoned, but as you mentioned, it seems like the project is mostly or entirely dead at this point. - joe ___ fossil-users mailing list fossil-users@lists.fossil-scm.org http://lists.fossil-scm.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fossil-users
