Post: Bug: check-in comment not saved if the commit fails

Scenario:

  1. Run fossil commit

  2. Type in a detailed check-in comment.

  3. The check-in aborts because (for example) another developer checked in ahead of you.

After you "fossil up" and retest and then rerun "fossil commit" it forgets the comment text that you worked so hard on in step 2. It really ought to remember that text and present it to you again in the editor as the default comment.
