Description & Comments: | |||
On Windows XP SP3, using a precompiled binary from fossil-scm.org (73c24ae363] 2010-03-18), the following command fails unless a fossil repository has been opened in the current directory:
fossil branch new BranchA 2848a7f6d9 -R ..\my.repo --> fossil: use --repository or -R to specify the repository database The following succeeds: fossil open ..\my.repo --> ... checkout: e5f12d6eef... fossil branch new BranchA 2848a7f6d9 -R ..\my.repo And correctly creates the new BranchA off basis 2848a7f6d9. Also works (in the latter case) without the -R. |
