| 02:51 | Reworked the discussion of "fossil server" in the Quick Start to remove redundant discussion of "fossil ui" mode, previously covered. Moved some things up into that section as a result. The two modes are now treated independently, on purpose; the fact that they're implemented by a lot of shared code is an internal implementation detail, not something we need to make a point of in the Quick Start doc. ... (check-in: 6a2fee8fd4 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 02:24 | Tooting SQLite's horn in the "you may safely Ctrl-C out of fossil ui" bit in the Quick Start. The truth of this claim is no accident. ... (check-in: 9c07d8a3a5 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 02:16 | Changed one of the just-added links to an external doc to a section further down, which _then_ links to that doc. ... (check-in: e6c4176cd3 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 02:12 | Added a paragraph to allay fears about the "localhost bypasses the RBAC" fears the prior discussion of "fossil ui" may raise. This gives another chance to direct the user to "fossil server" and the rest of the /www/server/ docs. ... (check-in: afb3db9200 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 02:10 | Further tightening of the Quick Start. ... (check-in: eb52410b0c user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 01:34 | Tightened up a wordy paragraph in the Quick Start by moving the link inline. ... (check-in: 529b94795d user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 01:32 | Replaced repeated parenthetical explanations in the Quick Start doc with links to the glossary entry. No longer referencing the glossary directly; readers will click through one of these two new links and find it, or not. ... (check-in: ab7a22f533 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

| 11:18 | Replaced the mention of "fossil branch new" in the Quick Start doc with a link to the section of the gitusers doc which explains why this is not the recommended way of working with Fossil. Both options remain documented, but now we bring Git expats to the place where many of their _other_ questions are most likely to be answered. ... (check-in: f04b61f7e1 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 11:08 | Expanded the "Starting A New Project" section of the Quick Start doc to cover the next few common steps. Also updated the "fossil version" example above it to the current release version to keep the doc from looking *too* outdated. ... (check-in: 4f42caee47 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

| 19:21 | Split the MSYS2/Cygwin build instructions out from the MinGW ones and updated both. Dropped mention of "MSYS", having not tested the current build under it. If it still works, and someone cares to revive the instructions, that should be done only after retesting. ... (check-in: 738404347c user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 19:04 | Narrowed the configure script's is_mingw test: it was checking only the output of uname for `*mingw*`, but that catches MSYS2, which provides a Linux-like environment, not what this MinGW test is meant to handle. ... (check-in: 5c6dee54ca user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

| 07:13 | Giving the h1.page-title below the menu bar the same off-black tint as the content body headers (#444) when shown, not full black, giving it an out-of-place appearance. ... (check-in: 7253b15a53 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 07:10 | Added .content CSS selector qualification layer for /artifact, /dir, /fileedit, and /wiki pages to keep the 10px left indent on the h1 layer from affecting the page header h1, causing the repo name at the top of the default skin to shift relative to the menu bar, but only for these pages. ...

| 17:06 | Removed redundant LIBS=-lfuse, causing duplicate library warning in the case where autosetup determines it's needed. Calling cc-check-function-in-lib already appends the library to LIBS if needed. ... (check-in: 07673a1368 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:03 | Merged experimental branch md-col-header-alignment ... (check-in: 9f8bf69185 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 14:56 | Minimal change to MD to HTML styling to allow `:` alignment markers to be obeyed. Without this, the skin's default left alignment takes over because although it's brought in at the head of the document, the body doesn't override it because our CSS selectors are more specific, giving them precedence. ...

| 17:36 | Added internal link spacer to colordiff doc, without which the #diffutils reference appears to be a no-op. (Comment edit needed to fix Fossil eating the rest of the Vim-edited comment after the "#".) ... (check-in: fdd8057dff user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:35 | Fixed a broken link in the new colordiff doc due to being extracted from the gitusers doc. ... (check-in: 449879163a user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:33 | Explained why we don't leave diff-command unset for the "bat" alternative. ... (check-in: 9fca91e8e3 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:28 | Added a new doc distilling all the common methods for getting colorized diffs. Extracted its seed from the gitusers doc in part because it isn't Git-specific, and because there are more options to cover, sufficient to justify a separate doc. ... (check-in: 7c99ebc592 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 16:19 | Indent fix in gitusers.md to make it use a monospace font for nested command examples. ... (check-in: dd8d1a5809 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 16:17 | The recent gitusers doc improvements allow a better HTML fragment target; the browser's scroll-back includes the new section header now rather than target a paragraph within another section. ... (check-in: 567658a718 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 15:54 | Clarity tweaks to the "Closing a Check-Out" section in the gitusers doc. ... (check-in: 6a4f2d23ce user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 15:32 |
In response to a recent forum
thread, added a new section to the gitusers doc, "Fossil Never
Auto-Commits". The ideas behind this were previously expressed
implicitly, but con-fused with others, resulting in the lack of clarity
characteristic of alchemical slag.
Put the new section before "There Is No Staging Area" as that follows on from these ideas, then calved off the subsequent section "Commit Splitting" because it covers related but separate ideas. Together, these three form a conceptual whole that is considerably clearer than the prior presentation. ... (check-in: 5f5452f110 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

2024-03-30
| ||
| 20:48 | Removed all references to "Fossil 2.1x" from the docs, excepting the changelog and the hashpolicy doc. The bulk of these were for 2.14 or older — *ten* versions back now! — and there is no reason to suppose such old versions are still in use any more. These notes were justified when they informed users about surprising changes and feature additions, but they now do nothing but clutter the docs. If I am wrong about people being surprised by these things, we still have the changelog, the timeline, and the forum. ... (check-in: ad47a447c8 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

| 22:56 | Allow rendering of Pikchrs to SVG via /doc/…/foo.pikchr?popup URLs. This allows a file stored in the repo to be referenced as an SVG from other pages. ... (Closed-Leaf check-in: 758170bc79 user: wyoung tags: render-pikchr-via-doc-popup) | |
|
2024-02-29

| 19:48 | Removed extra indent in the login groups doc. Not caught earlier because it's buried in the "caps" section. ... (check-in: a7255ba561 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

2024-02-28

| 18:16 | URL fix in previous; remote path needs to be part of the URL, and we can avoid giving the local clone path by using the new clone-and-open functionality. ... (check-in: 69959fa5b6 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 18:10 | Extended the sync doc with info about PATH implications of finding the fossil binary on the remote system over ssh: URLs, including formal documentation (for the first time?) of the ?fossil= query parameter. ... (check-in: a975ccb75b user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:52 | Added fragment identifiers to the h2 and h3 levels of the sync doc, for referring to individual sections. ... (check-in: 5ca63acf9f user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

Reworked the handling of the three "selected" row cases in /timeline
(current, first-in-range and last-in-range) so the borders and
highlighting extend to the left margin. The "current" case (seen under
"fossil ui" only, to indicate the ckout version) wasn't a problem, but
the other two use background colors potentially confusable with branch
colors. This makes the timelines more like that of the Fossil 2.23 and
prior default skin (now called Étienne) but with rounded corners in the
modern modes, matching the rest of the timeline.
This occurs in all timeline modes, including the classic, compact, and verbose views. The result is that the corners for these selected row types are rounded, but because they tend to be compact, it gives a full-round look on the ends. Avoiding this would require considerably more verbose CSS, and it's plenty intricate as it is. ... (check-in: 9568091a9b user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 01:56 | Extended [b272004b] to cover the "classic" timeline mode as well. ... (check-in: ef4a1e817f user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 01:20 | Comment cell highlighting in /timeline now takes into account the compact and verbose modes better, and it separates out the rounding from the coloring so it can apply less rounding and a bit more padding in these same two cases, to avoid having the text near the corners crash into the borders. ...

Changed home page title from "Home" to "A Coherent Software
Configuration Management System" since docs now show the title in the
body area. "Home" in the title area was fine, but now it wants
something more explanatory of the page's content.
Moved the list of links on the right up a bit as a result. Switched the ASCII hyphens to em dashes in the list of Fossil attributes belo. ... (check-in: 452726d678 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

| 20:31 | Improved appearance of the new CGI URL breakdown Pikchr: colorized it and made use of polygons instead of spindly lines to indicate the parts. ... (check-in: 11420bbbdb user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 15:56 | Further improvements to pre styling, now taking MD forum posts into account. ... (check-in: 77f9162010 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 15:46 | Merged two redundant style rules for sidebars. Manual merge error? ... (check-in: 825efe96d2 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 15:35 | Removed horizontal rules in backup doc used to offset the bigger code blocks. Between the new light-gray background and the indents, they're adding noise more than helping break the page up. ... (check-in: 6b520900c9 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
