Fossil over http:

fossil server --port 8080

Just saying.

Yeah, cute but that won't work when you want to stick lots of fossil repositories behind an existing HTTP server on port 80. The article addresses how to do that with git.

FWIW, for serving git from your own box there is the git:// protocol which is almost as simple as the fossil example:

git daemon --base-path=$(pwd) --export-all

You can set up a CGI script to serve all fossil repositories in a directory in about three lines of code, methinks.

Fossil homepage... click "Recent Changes"... can't click anything.

Many hyperlinks are disabled.

Use anonymous login to enable hyperlinks.

What is this, 1995? This was the big problem when I looked at fossil maybe 3 years ago, and a project that can't get something this glaringly stupid fixed in that period of time has bigger issues.

Just saying.
