Title: Default user not respected for 'fossil tag'
Status: Open Type: Code_Defect
Severity: Priority:
Subsystem: Resolution: Open
Last Modified: 2010-10-01 19:09:16
Version Found In: b48f78964e
Description & Comments:
We have the default user (fossil user default XXX) set different than the system user running the commands.

After setting tags to check-ins, I noticed that the artifacts created get "U system-user-name" instead of "U fossil-default-user-name".

If i understand you right then

  • login tag creator is john AND john is defined as a fossil user
  • the default user is doe
  • if john executes "fossil tag new johntag" (in an open checkout!)
  • then the tags are marked with user john
  • if lear executes "fossil tag new leartag" and he has no fossil login and user anonymous has right to tag Then the default user doe is used!

I don' think it is a defect could you check again?

I cannot reproduce this again. It was on cygwin.

Nevertheless I think it was not the situation you explain. I will open a ticket with clear steps of reproducing the problem, if I can.

Thank you.
