Type "fossil ui" and Fossil automatically +opens a web browser to a page that shows detailed graphical history and +status information on that project. + +.HP +3. +.B Self-Contained +- Fossil is a single self-contained stand-alone executable. To install, +simply download a precompiled binary for Linux, Mac, OpenBSD, or Windows +and put it on your $PATH. Easy-to-compile source code is available for +users on other platforms. + +.HP +4. +.B Simple Networking +- No custom protocols or TCP ports. Fossil uses plain old HTTP (or HTTPS +or SSH) for all network communications, so it works fine from behind +restrictive firewalls, including proxies. The protocol is bandwidth +efficient to the point that Fossil can be used comfortably over dial-up +or over the exceedingly slow Wifi on airliners. + +.HP +5. +.B CGI/SCGI Enabled +- No server is required, but if you want to set one up, Fossil supports +four easy server configurations. + +.HP +6. +.B Autosync +- Fossil supports "autosync" mode which helps to keep projects moving +forward by reducing the amount of needless forking and merging often +associated with distributed projects. + +.HP +7. +.B Robust & Reliable +- Fossil stores content using an enduring file format in an SQLite +database so that transactions are atomic even if interrupted by a +power loss or system crash. Automatic self-checks verify that all +aspects of the repository are consistent prior to each commit. + +.HP +8. +.B Free and Open-Source +- Uses the 2-clause BSD license. + +.SH DOCUMENTATION +https://fossil-scm.org/ +.br +.B fossil +\fIui\fR |
