Hello, fellow fossilers,
A few minutes ago i made a horrible mistake in a fossil repo and felt
compelled to post a minor warning/gotcha for other developers out there. The
solution to the mistake also points out a nice side-effect of the
single-file _FOSSIL_ metadata approach (as opposed to using
Single fossil.exe, single repository.fossil and single _FOSSIL_. That's
why I love fossil :)

I have done this exact thing (except I used sed and ack instead of perl

For a long time now, Fossil has accepted two possible names for the

Again, i don't consider this to be a fossil problem, but stupid user error.
Another point: this problem was a side-effect of my own personal workflow,
using an operation which has obvious risks of making unwanted
ack in default mode ignores both _FOSSIL_ and .fos. ack -u searches
both, so changing it wouldn't have helped me either

That might break some forms of automation, like cygwin makefiles which want
to use or ignore that file, or scripts
You can use eclipse IDE to refactor C code.
