20:48
Removed all references to "Fossil 2.1x" from the docs, excepting the changelog and the hashpolicy doc. The bulk of these were for 2.14 or older — *ten* versions back now! — and there is no reason to suppose such old versions are still in use any more. These notes were justified when they informed users about surprising changes and feature additions, but they now do nothing but clutter the docs. If I am wrong about people being surprised by these things, we still have the changelog, the timeline, and the forum. ... (check-in: ad47a447 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

In the source of the home page (www/index.wiki) move the "What Is It?" header ahead of the floating sidebar.

14:35
Changed home page title from "Home" to "A Coherent Software Configuration Management System" since docs now show the title in the body area. "Home" in the title area was fine, but now it wants something more explanatory of the page's content.

Moved the list of links on the right up a bit as a result.

Removed horizontal rules in backup doc used to offset the bigger code blocks. Between the new light-gray background and the indents, they're adding noise more than helping break the page up. ... (check-in: 6b520900 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

13:25
The skin's new "indent" class for block elements doesn't apply to "p" tags due to CSS cascading rules. Changed them to divs to sidestep this limitation. Also fixed another instance of bold formatting interfering with abutting italics. ... (check-in: d8e2a3b8 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

Style tweak in the embedded doc: italic next to bold causes the slanted letters to crash into the surrounding bold text. Bold-italic solves that. ... (check-in: 99e6f717 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

Fixed a 5-space indent in one of the customskin doc's examples with MD's 4-space minimum to avoid extra indent. ... (check-in: b6fa99e8 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

12:31
Consolidated the dual titles in the tech_overview doc into one; the new body-area h1 tag for docs makes the old styling redundant. ... (check-in: 010e5527 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
2024-02-17
19:09
Proposed changes to the home page, mainly to work better with the new skin, but also a bit of a branding touch-up. ... (Closed-Leaf check-in: b85779e4 user: wyoung tags: new-home-page-title)
2024-02-11
13:23
Updated the customskin doc to cover the new WCAG semantic header/footer tagging, and to give advice on migrating from earlier versions, where custom skinning would have copy-pasted the old way of doing things. Linking to this advice from the changes doc for the benefit of those those paying attention to the change log. ... (check-in: b3f449e8 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

2024-02-09

Simplified the style overrides on the fossil-v-git doc's ToC table to give the browser more layout freedom, preventing it from being clipped off on the right edge on smaller mobile devices. ... (check-in: ca973301 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)

05:43
Removed extra indent level from the release doc link in the permuted index, generated by the mkindex.tcl script. ... (check-in: 01764fea user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
04:42
Added three new block-element classes to the skin to replace use of "blockquote" with semantic alternatives:
  • "indent" for cases where the only purpose was to indent things
  • "blockquote" where you want an actual block quote in a wiki doc and thus can't use a "blockquote" element due to the historical misuse of this tag, preventing us from doing the same for it as we do for MD
  • "sidebar" when the reason you wanted an indented paragraph was to create a sidebar; this is styled much like a blockquote in MD (or the new "blockquote" class in wiki docs) but floats to the right.

Using all three of these in the remaining www/ docs that still used explicit "blockquote" tags.

(If you're wondering why the prior commit claims to have dealt with all of these tags when this commit belies that, it's because this work was done en masse, then split up into two related commits to keep the commit messages more on-point. It was easier to commit these two chunks of work in this order. It would have required a complicated dance with the stash to commit them in the more logical order.) ... (check-in: 56c7c2cb user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)

04:29
Replaced nearly all explicit uses of the "blockquote" tag in the embedded docs:
  • Constructs like "<blockquote><pre>" are now simply "<pre>"
  • Ditto "<blockquote><b>" for command examples, which then allowed me to get rid of explicit "br" elements; pre does that for us.
  • Where it was used merely to get an indent for a code block, we're now using pre or verbatim instead, depending on whether we need embedded HTML and/or pre-wrap handling. (Not the same thing as the prior item.) In some places, this let us replace use of HTML-escaped code blocks in pre with verbatim equivalents, not needing the escaping, allownig the doc source to read more like the rendered HTML.
  • Use of blockquotes to get hierarchical indenting is no longer necessary; the skin does that. A good example is indenting ol and ul lists under the parent paragraph; additional manual indenting is no longer necessary.

The only remaining instances of "blockquote" under www/ are necessary:

  1. The copyright release doc is plain HTML, without the fossil-doc wrapper, giving it no access to the new skin improvements.
  2. One MD doc wants a blockquote in the middle of a list, and the current parsing rules don't let us use ">" there.
  3. The skinning ...

Small cosmetic tweaks to the mirrortogithub doc on this branch to work better with the skin. ... (check-in: cabbf1ca user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
03:59
Merged backslash fix in from trunk ... (check-in: d9debe90 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
03:58
Use of a trailing backslash in a command example in the mirrortogithub doc wasn't rendering as expected, leading the command to be split in the HTML rendering, not continued across multiple lines as intended. Replaced it with an HTML named entity to sidestep this quirk of the MD renderer. ... (check-in: 221cf52b user: wyoung tags: trunk)
02:57
Removed a bunch of explicit blockquote tags in the encryptedrepos doc which were essentially duplicating the hierarchical indent structure now implemented by this branch's skin changes. This is why we want to do this at the skin level: so all pages get this appearance, avoiding the need for manual formatting on each page. ... (check-in: 01e364c6 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
02:53
Replaced use of an explicit "blockquote" tag in an MD doc with a leading ">". It's not only simpler markup, it generates slightly different HTML output, leading to better formatting under this skin. ... (check-in: 9f71793c user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
02:39
Reworked the remaining custom CSS in the server index doc to cascade properly with the new table styling in the skin. ... (check-in: d3c55b57 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
02:35
Removed explicit CSS at the top of the server index doc. In some ways, this was a prototype of this branch's skin changes, with the result that we were getting double-indents, one from the skin and one from the local additions meant to give hanging headers to the current trunk default skin. ... (check-in: 3291f68f user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
2024-02-03
23:39
Removed table styling overrides once more for the checkin_names doc's Quick Reference table. Prior backout commit reverted that. ... (check-in: 2da64ba4 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
23:37
Found a simpler fix for [6b40ee53]: put a blank line between the end of the floated-right table and the first paragraph. Reduces the diff for this file relative to trunk to a single LF. ... (check-in: 6088d203 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
23:12
Merged trunk. Notably, drh's [bb3de39ffefb3f20] works seamlessly with this branch's skin. ... (check-in: 4f9cb1d1 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)

2024-01-29
17:56
Wrapped the TH1 vars declared for custom skinning in backticks for better MD formatting, avoiding the need to escape underscores to prevent them from being interpreted as requesting italics. Fixed a typo in one of the variable names while in there; the visual noise of one of these escaped underscores hid the typo. ... (check-in: 3b505e6f user: wyoung tags: trunk)
2024-01-28
22:52
Merged all trunk changes in except for the underlined link change to default.css. ... (check-in: 6301f6ce user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
20:24
Moved the first paragraph of the checkin names doc up above the Quick Reference sidebar table to sidestep the previously-mentioned wiki rendering bug, at the minor expense of pushing said sidebar down slightly. (Also removed local overrides on the table, to let the skin's table styling take over fully.) The prior checkin's fix the first-line spacing problem doesn't suffice; the bug still leaves this paragraph unindented and without the same line spacing as the others. ... (check-in: 6b40ee53 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
2024-01-27
15:32
Replaced many uses of blockquote in the quick start doc with pre, verbatim, etc., where all that was wanted was an indented block of text. These more semantic markup elements are now indented already. ... (check-in: d5de647a user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
15:30
Simplified table styling for the ToC at the top of the Fossil v Git doc to make better use of the new styling. ... (check-in: 5f1caed1 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
15:20
Removed table border overrides in the delta format doc, and replaced misuse of tables as layout tools with pre and verbatim. This is part of the branch only insofar as tables now have visual style, and these things interfere with the new style. ... (check-in: 76f6e9e1 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
15:11
Removed redundant h1 tags in wiki docs, duplicating "title" elements that already display in the skin's header area. They take up vertical space without adding any new information. ... (check-in: 2572e48b user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)

17:28
Several doc adjustments to make things work better with the new skin. Although this isn't strictly part of the new skin, and it does admit of a type of regression, I'm committing it here anyway because these are cases where markup was used to work around problems in the old skin. Nearly all of these are misuses of the "blockquote" tag to mean "indented paragraph". Now that we have true indented paragraph styles, switched the markup over to use them. ... (check-in: ee6ca48c user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)

Replaced the hand-rolled table at the top of the customskin doc with an MD table that now gets styled in much the same way under the new skin. ... (check-in: 69aaf259 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)
16:30
Backed out all the extra whitespace in command examples in the gitusers doc now that the skin handles indenting for us. ... (check-in: d3eae187 user: wyoung tags: inskinerator-modern-backport)

22:10
Added §5.6 to the containers doc, "Email Alerts," explaining how to get email alerts out by use of the included tools/email-sender.tcl script and the "write mail to DB" feature since the default option (sendmail -ti) won't work by default and it wouldn't be appropriate to make it work besides. This then obviated the earlier half-baked advice on injecting a Tcl environment into the container; the essential point is adequately made by the Python example, so there is no point trying to rescue this plan. ...

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)

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 Markdown nested lists, where blank lines should render the list items as separate paragraphs just as at the list's top level; since it does not, if you want a line break, you either have to wrap the item in "p" tags or do the double-br hack.
  • in Wiki where blank lines within a list give you a separate list in the HTML output; this is fine for bullet lists, but with numbered lists it causes the numbering to restart unless you do the same sort of manual HTML workaround as with the prior item
  • in plain HTML docs and wiki docs between "nowiki" tags

In many places, this cleanup gets rid of pointless stray "p" tags, placating HTML verifiers. ... (check-in: 1fd407f6 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

04:59
The container now uses BusyBox only in the build and setup stages, leaving just the static Fossil binary in the final stage, plus absolute necessities like a /tmp directory.

This removes the justification for the custom BusyBox configuration, which then means we can use Alpine's busybox-static package in the second stage, saving a bunch of network I/O and build time.

That in turn means we no longer have any justification for jailing the Fossil binary, since there's nothing extra left inside the container for it to play with. Doing this required bumping the Dockerfile syntax back up from 1.0 to 1.3 to get the "COPY --chmod" feature; tested it in Podman, which has had it for two years now.

Doing all of this simplifies the Dockerfile and its documentation considerably. As a bonus, it builds quicker, and it's nearly a meg lighter in compressed image form. Especially for the case of using the container as a static "fossil" binary builder, this is nothing but win. ... (check-in: 79ac06a5 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

Dropped our canned /etc/os-release file entirely, recommending instead that those who need a VM-like container image switch the second stage from "scratch" to one of Google's "distroless" images, which provide that and more.
