Hi Offray,

is your FossilRepo object using a JSON over HTTP API to Fossil? It could make Fossil an interesting candidate, because it could mean a single http API (and not one API per git hosting provider...)

I'm also curious about iceberg integration. I'm also an advocate for fossil: I like its lightness as process and software, offering full stack distributed collaboration in just 2 Mb (wiki, tickets, DVCS, etc.) I can not catch up with upcoming Pharo 6, but hopefully after being released I will be able to test fossil stuff, particularly because is the chosen collaboration backend for Grafoscopio.

BTW, when installing Grafoscopio you get a FossilRepo object that is used to query Fossil repositories via the JSON API and update documentation. Still in early stages, but I will experiment how Pierce's Fossil support give a more cohesive user experience when working with publication and collaboration of interactive notebooks.

Cheers,

Offray

This is cool.
I'm curious to see if we could manage fossil back-end via iceberg.

Hi all,
I have written a simple integration of FileTree with Fossil to avoid the 2-step
Pharo- and shell-level work to add/delete/commit files.
At the operating system command prompt, init a new Fossil project:
��os% mkdir ~/repo
�� os% cd ~/repo
�� os% fossil init myproject.fossil
�� project-id: 3c05c3016eeabf8e87816ee218c6a86d3c87b950
�� server-id:�� ff42bc86dba1a26b1d94b64685f7c09d02581617
�� admin-user: laptop-user (initial password is "1fe2ff")
Open the repository:
��os% mkdir ~/myproject
�� os% cd ~/myproject
�� os% fossil open ~/repo/myproject.fossil
In a fresh Pharo 6 image - I used v60411 - install FossilFileTree:
��Metacello new
�� baseline: 'FossilFileTree';
�� repository: 'github://PierceNg/FossilFileTree';
�� load.
Write code in Pharo. Open Monticello Browser. Add a "fossilfiletree"
repository, using ~/myproject as the directory. Save to said repository
from within Monticello Browser. Done.
