Hello,
I ran into a small issue while adding two files to my repository,
using a somewhat old version of fossil, so it may be that the problem
has already been solved. Anyway, here is the scenario:
fossil add filea fileb
where filea is the name of an existing file and fileb contains a typo,
so fossil is quite right in complaining about that one. However, the
message is something like:
ADDED: filea
fileb not found ...
This looks as if filea was added and fileb was not. So, subsequently
I did:
fossil add fileb_correct
And then I did:
fossil commit
The list of files that were modified or added did NOT include filea!
The fact that fileb was an invalid name nullified the addition of filea
to the repository despite the message on the screen. As there was no
indication at all of this, I thought filea was in fact added.
Regards,
Arjen

Dear Arjen,
I think that is by design (don't quote me on that). But as I see it
the action of adding files is a transaction and when something in a
transaction fails, the entire transaction is rolled back. I would
interpret the message as: The transaction failed due to the fact that
fileb was not found.
The latest version (windows 2011-04-13 12:05:18) only says that the
file was not found and nothing else. I think it would be a good idea
to have it one extra message (the fact that the entire add failed) is
added.
