It is useful for debugging if artifacts can be obtained directly from a fossil repository without having to create a checkout. Aka support "fossil artifact -R".

% fossil help artifact
Usage: fossil artifact ARTIFACT-ID ?OUTPUT-FILENAME?
There is no way to specify a repository to extract the artifact directly without having to open it first.
On the same line:
% fossil help test-parse-manifest
Usage: fossil test-parse-manifest FILENAME ?N?
There is absolutely no reason why it needs a repository at all. Not helpful when debugging why a rebuild failed.
