    A Categorical Theory of Patches

    A formalization of the #Darcs theory of patches. Darcs ( http://darcs.net/ ) is a #DVCS, like #git or #hg or #Fossil, but based around patches.

    2. A Categorical Theory of Patches
      When working with distant collaborators on the same documents, one often uses a version control system, which is a program tracking the history of files and helping importing modifications brought by others as patches. The implementation of such a system requires to handle lots of situations depending on the operations performed by users on files, and it is thus difficult to ensure that all the corner cases have been correctly addressed. Here, instead of verifying the implementation of such a system, we adopt a complementary approach: we introduce a theoretical model, which is defined abstractly by the universal property that it should satisfy, and work out a concrete description of it. We begin by defining a category of files and patches, where the operation of merging the effect of two coinitial patches is defined by pushout. Since two patches can be incompatible, such a pushout does not necessarily exist in the category, which raises the question of which is the correct category to represent and manipulate files in conflicting state. We provide an answer by investigating the free completion of the category of files under finite colimits, and give an explicit description of this category: its objects are finite sets labeled by lines equipped with a transitive relation and morphisms are partial functions respecting labeling and relations.

    I think y’all know I favor the #Fossil #SCM / #DVCS over #Git (though I’m giving #Mercurial ( #Hg ) another look as well. I’m resource-constrained as well as energy-limited, but I have been thinking of standing up a miniature software forge for !FNetworks projects and users, likely using Kallithea (which can use both Hg and Git) and also having some Fossil repos (but not as part of a forge).

    Planning to play with #Kallithea https://kallithea-scm.org/ soon. I’m still very much in favor of #Fossil https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/index.wiki but I’m not rigid about it (the way many #Git and #Github users are). If either Git or #Mercurial ( #Hg ) https://www.mercurial-scm.org/ are appropriate for the situation, I’ll use them.

    I much prefer #Fossil to #Git.

    I haven't really used #Breezy / #brz ( the actively developed fork of #Bazaar / #bzr ) or #Mercurial / #hg or #Darcs or #Pijul. I should explore some of these.

    Maybe I should see about getting a #Launchpad account.

    Doing my very first exploratory steps with #JSI. The JSI shell #jsish ( https://jsish.org/ ) is an outside the browser JavaScript implementation that takes some inspiration from #Tcl and uses #Fossil.

    I'm continuing to explore #Tcl (and its #Tk GUI toolkit) and I've also just recently started with #Lua.

    (Reason: I've got a personal project that I'm planning to write three implementations of ... one in each of the above languages.)

    @moonman My feelings exactly. I didn't have anything original there ( #Github ) in the first place, but I had patches for others' projects. I removed everything several years ago. Yes, a couple of potential employers have passed on hiring me because my GH account was empty. I just (A) don't want to support centralized facilities like GH or SourceForge any more, when you can host your own #git / #hg / #darcs / fossil; and (B) as my role at work has changed more toward user support, I'm not creating or using such patches any more, so if someone found and started using them, they'd be potentially doing it wrong / importing security holes.

    ( For a while, I had my own #Fossil repo with some original stuff, but thanks to hosting changes are $EMPLOYER work scheduling / hotel Internet, that's all gone, too. )

    @geniusmusing @brandon A lot of projects have quick instructions for the minimal #git tasks necessary to use / update their source code. Yes, overall, it is too complicated, and is really suited for the largest projects, not small to medium sized projects (which is why I prefer #fossil myself).

    Ok, I am trying to setup a #fossil scm as cgi server under #openbsd. I have it wrapped in slowcgi and a cgi-bin/repo script that has:

    ```
    #!/bin/fossil
    directory: /repos
    ```

    where repos is in /var/www/repos and rw-able for the cgi user (www). Yet I always get the error 'Unable to find or open the project repository'

    Any other ideas that I could try?

    Feeling confident enough with #fossil to try using it for a real project (#rainpsc):

    https://fossil.2soc.net/cgi-bin/repo/rain/dir?ci=tip

    So far the only problem I've found is the links in my README are broken :)

    Cool thing is that if things work out and I decide to make the switch permanent, it's pretty easy to synchronize with a git repo should someone need to interact with the project that way.

    @cstanhope

    I think for most of the world Github *is* Git (unfortunately). At least most of the developers I encounter IRL don't understand that there is a way to use Git outside of the Github website.

    I wish #fossil had a "federated" mode that didn't use centralized servers. I think it might be easier with fossil because it already provides a "local mode" web UI, so you just need a background protocol to synchronize the repositories between collaborating hosts... 🤔

    Well I have my #fossil server setup with SSL and all that good stuff. Most of the hassle was dealing with #Apache cgi support (which I haven't touched since before the year 2000) and your basic unix permissions, etc.

    I still want to come up with a more convinient way of setting up new repositories, but that can wait. For now it's good enough to work with for awhile and see if I can switch over from #Git & #Gitlab

    Working on a blog post as well...

    @jjg I think you have to log into the remote #fossil and grant permissions for your other user.

    OK #fossil users, I'm stuck :)

    I created a local repository and it's working fine. I wanted to setup a server to push this to (LAN only at the moment, one step at a time right? :) ). To do this I:

    1. Installed fossil on another machine
    2. scp'd the local .fossil file to an empty directory on the server
    3. executed `fossil push http://server:port/repository` on the client

    What I get back is "Error: not authorized to write".

    I'm not sure if this is unix/fossil/other permissions or...?

    @bthall I have not encountered any of those ways in my simple projects (all of which are on extended hold due to work schedule). In theory, I still use #Fossil. In practice, I work and I sleep.

    @bob Or in a #SQLite db? It isn't #git, #GitHub, or #GitLab, but #Fossil is worth a look for most projects.

    Maybe this is a good time to look at #fossil again as a git alternative - I'm not saying I don't like git but it is always good to diversify...

    Curious about #fossil version control ? So was I. Here's what I found out:

    OK, I'm trying out #Fossil at last. I love git, but I've met Richard Hipp several times at conferences, and he's a really nice guy, so darnit, I'm giving his take on version control a go.
