The fossil import command does not support being given an filename to take input from - it only supports taking input from stdin.

I don't believe a windows equivalent of 'cat repo.fi | fossil import repo.fossil' exists, so it would be great if 'fossil import repo.fi repo.fossil' did what was expected. (You might need to make it 'fossil import --input repo.fi repo.fossil' or similar to avoid breaking existing scripts).

Thanks!
