fossil version change so often. It is getting harder to keep up.

Following steps * download * unpack * configure makefile * compile * install

This is time consuming and really not needed for people only need the new version of binary.

Can we design a directory layout for pre-compiled binary in "binary/os/version" in fossil source tree.

This way "fossil sync -R myclone.fossil" can always bring me the latest binary for a particular version of OS/Version.

or "fossil selfupgrade" command to automate the binary upgrade.

You could think of the executable downloads at the above link as "release" code.

And not download a new version every time the source changes.
