I have been trying Fossil with Filetree, and I was rather please by the mutuals use of these tools. So I may share a few feedbacks. Fossil[1] itself is a software to manage source code development. It is very simple to install and data is saved in a single sqlite database. It comes with source code management, bug tracker, web interface, wiki and timeline tools.
so I'm delighted to see the talk about using Fossil for VCS tool with Pharo.
So all in all, it is pretty nice if one want to move to a private souce code management system with very little requirement.
For those Git-lovers, there is plan by Dr Richard Hipp (author of Fossil) to provide support which "would allow you to "clone" repos off of GitHub.  Or to automatically sync your Fossil repositories on GitHub." (http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.fossil-scm .devel/580) Where can I find more about using Fossil with Pharo?
