Description

Fossil is a software configuration management system. Fossil is software that is designed to control and track the development of a software project and to record the history of the project. There are many such systems in use today. Fossil strives to distinguish itself from the others by being extremely simple to setup and operate.

In addition to distributed version control, it supports distributed bug tracking and wiki, with a built-in web interface, in a single easy-to-use integrated package.

Fossil provides the ability to sign your commits using gnupg. But, just installing it alone is not enough. You also need to run the following:

$ fossil settings clearsign on -global

This package can be built with a static FLAVOR, for use in a httpd(8) chrooted environment.

After upgrading to a newer version of fossil, it is always a good idea to run: "fossil all rebuild". Running "rebuild" this way is not always necessary, but it never hurts.
