Please Add source code editing to fossil ui, as seen in [http://googlecode.blogspot.com/2011/01/make-quick-fixes-quicker-on-google.html?spref=tw]


dmitry added on 2011-01-20 14:01:59 UTC: Here are some thoughts on implementation.

  • Have "can edit on web" permission flag.
  • Have special per-user staging area for edits from web, which records modifications to files.
  • Once file(s) are edited, they're put into the user's staging area.
  • User can commit his staging area if he has commit permission.
  • Users without commit permissions, but with "can edit on web" permissions, can create tickets with modifications from their staging area or download their modifications as a patch.

This won't work for anonymous or other "group" users. For those Fossil can have per-file editing without staging area. Also, not sure how to handle merges.
