Please consider the following
<verbatim>
mkdir bug; cd bug
fossil new repos.fsl
fossil open repos.fsl
date > file.dat
fossil add file.dat
fossil ci -m "checkin 1" -nosign
date > file.dat
fossil ci -m "checkin 2" -nosign
date > file.dat
fossil ci -m "checkin 3" -nosign
fossil ui
</verbatim>
If I now shun the revision of "checkin 1" and rebuild the repository, then the timeline will show "checkin 2" as the very first checkin! But if I now select "checkin 2" in the browser and chose to view its ancestors, an error occured and following message will be shown in my browser:
<verbatim>Assertion failed: (e>0), function bag_insert, file bag_.c, line 102.</verbatim>

However, if I <samp>deconstruct</samp> and <samp>reconstruct</samp> the repository, the "checkin 2" will really be the first checkin and clicking its ancestors will refer to itself, what I would consider a better solution.

Please let me know, if more information is needed ...

Ciao,<br>
