My preferred answer to that question is the "fossil ui" command - but I
don't think that is the answer you are looking for, is it :-)

The same thing can be done using multiple "fossil tag add --raw" commands,
but it is tricky to get that sequence of commands exactly right.  Try making
the change once using the UI, then seeing the various tag changes the UI
makes.  That will show you which tag changes you'll need to make using the
"fossil tag" command.

Thanks - I actually figured it out myself after I inquired.  I was fixated on 
the command line and forgot about the ui.  That being said, how can it be done 
on the command line?

Go to the page that describes the check-in that you want to be the start of
a new branch.  For example:

   http://www.fossil-scm.org/fossil/info/cb44f7dea4

Click on the "edit" link to the far right of "Other Links".  On the "edit"
page, click the checkbox beside the phrase: "Make this check-in the start of
a new branch named:" and also fill in the name of the branch you want.  You
might also want to check one of the background color boxes and the checkbox
that says: "Propagate color to descendants" before you press the "Apple
Changes" button.

I had the same problem and was never able to figure it out. I'd be happy to 
hear of a solution.

[fossil-users] how do i move a previous checkin to a branch?

2010-05-27 Thread Wilson, Ronald
I'm a bit frustrated here because I can't figure out how to move a
checkin I did yesterday to a new branch.  I know it can be done because
I see drh do it all the time.  I tried fossil tag branch but it told me
to use fossil branch new.  Now I have a new branch based on the checkin
from yesterday, but that is not what I want.  I want yesterday's checkin
to be on the branch, not be the basis for the branch.  So first I need
to learn how to cancel the branch I just made with fossil branch new and
then how to tag yesterday's checkin with a new branch name.  I suspect
it has something to do with fossil tag --raw, but google isn't helping
me here.
