| 23:54 | Improved the documentation for quote parsing in globs. ... (check-in: 609bf98b user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 23:46 | Fix to the prior commit: editing lost a closing "*/" in a comment, yet it compiled with only a warning, and I missed the warning. ... (check-in: c5d287b6 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 22:54 | Updated all of "fossil help *-glob" output to refer to the syntax docs instead of repeating the parsing rules in each setting, incorrectly. (If URLs in help output are verboten, then we need to repeat the rules *correctly* in each setting's help.) ... (check-in: 7dc0433b user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 22:30 | Added a few named anchors to the globs doc, added a mention of the new empty-dirs handling, and improved the internal MD markup style. ... (check-in: b293b265 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 22:23 | Brought the globs doc back into line with the underlying implementation, and to mention the new treatement of the empty-dirs setting's value. ... (check-in: 2c0b70eb user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 22:11 | Switched the empty-dirs setting handler from a one-off parser to glob_create() both so we get consistent behavior across the settings and because glob_create() allows quoted whitespace, needed when asking it to create directories with spaces in them. Addresses this forum report. ... (check-in: f12609fc user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 21:32 | Updated the function comment on glob_create() to match what it actually does. ... (check-in: c43205d7 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 21:27 | Replaced a complicated bit of logic with something slighlty less complicated, having the same effect. The glob parser used a mix of second-clause for-loop testing and internal break and continue checks without any other internal processing inside the loop. Combining all of this into a single expression requires the line to wrap (bad for clarity) but it does make clear all of the conditions required for this loop to continue iterating. I think it's a net improvement in clarity, though the margin is admittedly small. Testing shows no regression in functionality, limiting this non-functional change to a style improvement. ... (check-in: b8789239 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 21:07 | Reworked the prior commit's changelog entry to be more accurate and to match preexisting style. ... (check-in: 8ce70b4c user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 21:00 |
Fixed a symmetry problem in the vfile.chnged implementation: it had an
explicit check for when a file used to be a regular file and was
replaced by a symlink pointing to the same content, but it didn't then
check for the inverse case. Since the size and hash checks become
nonsense when both files aren't of the same type (whether symlinks or
regular files) we have to check for this case, too, else the only way to
get the "UNLINK" output from "fossil status" required trickery.
See this forum post for a test case and the trick previously needed to get Fossil to report "UNLINK" as a file's change status. ... (check-in: 4cca9033 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

| 18:31 | Moved the "sync is all-or-nothing" section of the gitusers doc above the autosync section. The order of those two isn't important, and it's better that autosync flow immediately into the new "reset" section without this as a digression. ... (check-in: b47b96a0 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 18:30 | Clarity pass on the new material in the Autosync section of the gitusers doc. ... (check-in: cc55044b user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
|
2023-05-12
| ||
| 14:05 | Added a link from the new "git reset" example in the intro of the gitusers doc to the new section where we address the matter. ... (check-in: 84955715 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 13:32 | Clarity pass on the autosync section of the gitusers doc ... (check-in: 80963ffe user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 13:21 | Added a new section "Resetting the Repository" to the gitusers doc, following and relying on the two recently-updated sections. ... (check-in: bd7b1099 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 12:19 | Added a motivating example to the "Autosync" section of the gitusers doc, showing why it's better to let the software system resolve conflicts asynchronously than to force Alice and Bob to fight it out, moving the synchronization point out into the human-time workflow. ... (check-in: 8975e8da user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 11:38 | Clarified the "Sync Is All-or-Nothing" section of the gitusers doc, adding a reference to the cap-theorem doc and dropping the "eventually-consistent" buzzword to explain *why* it's all-or-nothing. ... (check-in: 35b2307f user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

2023-05-11
| ||
| 12:28 | Made the msmtp mention in the alerts doc more concrete now that we have a verified tester. ... (check-in: ea74c83a user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
|
2023-05-10
| ||
| 18:40 | Removed all of the XML-style " />" tag closing markers on empty tags such as "hr", "br", and "input" to placate modern HTML5 validators. That's the doctype we declare, not XHTML, so we should conform. (Besides which, the XHTML dream is dead.) ... (check-in: f5482a0a user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:51 | Small fix to previous ... (check-in: 5537d9c2 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:50 | Replaced use of the obsolete (because presentational) "center" tag in the docs with CSS equivalents. ... (check-in: 4d21ec88 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:36 | Added an alt attribute on the home page's Fossil logo ... (check-in: ccf117fe user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:23 | Fixed a manual section numbering duplication in the delta encoding algorithm doc. ... (check-in: d83f2490 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:20 | A prior edit to the quickstart doc left a vestigial version of the "Making and Committing Changes" section behind, resulting in duplicate information and a second h2 section with the same fragment ID. Some differences existed between the two presentations, so merged them rather than nuke the smaller (presumably older) one outright. ... (check-in: 39beee4c user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 17:02 |
In an effort to make www/* source documents read as cleanly as their
rendered counterparts, replaced nearly all use of HTML "p" tags, relying
instead on the Wiki and Markdown markup features to achieve the same
appearance. The only uses remaining are:
In many places, this cleanup gets rid of pointless stray "p" tags, placating HTML verifiers. ... (check-in: 1fd407f6 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 15:32 | Stray character deleted ... (check-in: 0cb4f1fc user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 14:20 | Replaced use of HTML "p" tags in the fiveminutes.wiki doc with hard line breaks, letting the wiki language add the same "p" tags on output. Replaced some of them with "tt" tags instead to make command text stand out from the prose. Added "tt" tags elsewhere for consistency. ... (check-in: 262eb510 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |

2023-05-06
| ||
| 20:21 | Added explicit SIGINT handler for the rootful container (PID 1) case, so you can Ctrl-C it when "run -it". ... (check-in: a0b0d8f9 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 19:48 | Set permissions on /bin/fossil inside the container to 755, not 700. Docker doesn't care since it runs everything as virtual-root, but Podman does. Also, it complicates the extraction of a static binary since you probably didn't want it set to 700 root:root out on the host, too. ... (check-in: 260efac1 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 19:04 | Assorted cleanups to the Dockerfile: disentangled use of /tmp for building and creation of the eventual contents of /etc, dropped an unnecessary directory hierarchy level, removed an unused variable, whitespace fixes, etc. No functional change. ... (check-in: f9bd6273 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 05:41 | Typo squish in the server doc section's index page ... (check-in: 4158e5e2 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
|
2023-05-03

| 11:03 | Made the URL matcher more specific in the nginx doc when showing how to get long expiration times on URLs known to yield unchanging content so we can drop the warning about it affecting URLs more likley to change. Added a second example for images, CSS, JS and such to show how you might handle these differently, addressing the core issue by example than by prose warning. ... (check-in: f77ab197 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 10:00 | Added a bit more advice about caching to previous, and fixed a whitespace problem. ... (check-in: 4d5a6477 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 09:56 | Improved the caching configuration recommended in the nginx doc to show the option for immutable content service for /artifact, /doc, /file, and /raw URLs, which are likely to contain hashes that make the URLs unique identifiers for particular versions of the referenced content. ... (check-in: 1d0d6986 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 07:08 | Tiny tweaks to the systemd doc ... (check-in: 0835ec45 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 06:23 | Added a paragraph to the unvers doc on the "y" capability. ... (check-in: faffd271 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 06:17 | Modernized the URL format in the unvers doc: using an actual (reserved) domain name instead of the vague "domain", showing it as "https" since "http" is widely deprecated, and using "tt" tags around it to make it stand out from the surrounding sans-serif text and to prevent it from breaking across word-wrap boundaries. ... (check-in: d1a3dda6 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
| 06:15 | Edit pass on the unvers.wiki doc, primarily to replace passive voice phrasing with active voice. Made a few clarifications and grammar tweaks atop that. ... (check-in: fef0ade9 user: wyoung tags: trunk) | |
