Maybe there is a better way, but I have scripts that parse the following command to get the SHA-1 of the current commit:

    fossil timeline ancestors current -n 1

However, the command above doesn't always produce output even if changing -n 1 to -n 2 does produce output. In this case, -n 2 only shows one commit.

I am able to reproduce this behavior in the SQLite fossil repository by checking out the commit for "Version 3.6.22" and running the command shown above.

This seems to have been fixed somewhere over the years. Cannot reproduce from the "branch-3.6.22" branch of the sqlite tree.
