Here are the steps I did:

** The following commands all occur within the "test1" directory
$ fossil new tr1.fsl
$ fossil open tr1.fsl
$ fossil add file1.txt
$ fossil ci -m "Initial commit"
...Edited file1.txt...
$ fossil ci -m "Removed some lines"
$ cd ../test2

** The following commands all occur within the "test2" directory
$ fossil clone http://localhost:8080/ tr2.fsl -> success
$ fossil open tr2.fsl -> success
..Edited file 1.txt...
$ fossil ci -m "Added lines at the end"

I am using a Windows 7 box for this.

I forgot to mention: tr2.fsl is a clone of tr1.fsl. Running sqlite3 "pragma integrity_check" on both test repos returns ok.

i could reproduce the error on Win XP SP2

The error does not appear, if autosync is switched off.

Ah, yes. New repos do have that option enabled by default.

I just tried it now and it works. Thanks!

Can I at least request for an error message to be shown instead of Fossil crashing? That way, it could point users to which they need to change.
