fixing minor issues with git imports to fossil
as i've moved my code to fossil, i stumbled across some slight naming issues
let's call it trunk again
the default branch name in fossil is trunk. if the newest commit of your git export is a feature branch, your fossil import will use that as branch-name.
to fix this, run
fossil tag cancel --raw sym-featurebranchname <current fossil commit id>
to remove the feature branch
fossil tag add --raw branch <current fossil commit id> trunk
and you should have switched to trunk, check it with fossil branch current
it took me only this post from the mailing list to figure this out. not totally intuitive, still much more intuitive than git internals! :)
