When tracking third party source, it is useful to have it on separate branch and merge onto trunk as needed. This doesn't work in Fossil:
rm -rf /tmp/fossil-merge-bug mkdir /tmp/fossil-merge-bug cd /tmp/fossil-merge-bug/ fossil new bug.fossil mkdir bug cd bug echo "vendor version" > test fossil open ../bug.fossil fossil add test fossil ci --branch vendor -m "Import vendor source." fossil close rm -rf * fossil open ../bug.fossil trunk echo === Attemt the merge... === fossil merge vendor
The script output here is:
