Timeline

fossil content links its documentation absolutely — the Cookbook has importing from Git — and the route mapping sent those to the file view. That was right when the file view was the only thing there was; since doc.get exists it has been putting readers in a source listing of a page quarry can render.

Leaves /uv/ dropped: unversioned content is a fossil feature neither quarry nor zit has, and that is why Download renders as plain text rather than as a link to a 404. closed check-in: d53f14d5b5 user: dmestas tags: doc-links-abs

Fossil's own docs link directories with a trailing slash — index.wiki carries a variety of techniques — and those all 404'd: the doc route found no renderable extension, redirected to the file view, and the file view cannot serve a directory. A real page was sitting behind the error the whole time (www/caps/index.md).

A directory now serves its index document, preferring the formats that render into the page, found with one listing rather than a probe per candidate. A directory with no index goes to the TREE view; only an actual file falls back to source. closed check-in: ff17aa2517 user: dmestas tags: doc-dirs

A fixed window is a dead end for anyone whose repositories are busy. Cursor is date~hash, so the merged stream cannot repeat or skip where two events share a timestamp. Sentinel

• loads the next page on scroll; noscript holds the same page as a link.

At 1800px the article ended 391 pixels short of the contents rail. That was not breathing room, it was a hole: the column took 1fr while the article capped at the measure, so the leftover sat between them.

The column now sizes to its content and the block centres. Running text still caps at the measure — 73 characters a line, where reading wants 45-75 — but a code block, a table or a diagram gets the whole column, because wrapping those to prose width is what makes people scroll sideways. Measured on fossil's th1.md: prose 625px, code up to 1216. closed check-in: d11bec1130 user: dmestas tags: doc-measure

Fossil's wikitheory.wiki: pages named branch/NAME or checkin/HASH are associated with that branch or check-in, and fossil shows them in an About section on those screens. Hiding them from the documentation index without this made 49 of fossil's 83 wiki pages reachable only by typing the URL — half the fix, and the worse half.

Notes now appear above their branch's timeline, their check-in, their ticket and their tag. A branch note shows only when the timeline is narrowed to that branch: above every branch it is a caption on the wrong picture.

Long ones start folded. Fossil's own auto-toc note runs three screens and put the timeline entirely below the fold, which is an About that has buried its subject. closed check-in: 9b9618a12f user: dmestas tags: assoc-notes

Resolved twice against work that landed on trunk in parallel — the wiki structure panel and saved views. All three are orthogonal; nothing was dropped. Truncation goes, since paging replaces it. check-in: ce412bd621 user: dmestas tags: trunk

A saved view is a name for a URL the tracker could already produce, so it stores the name and the query and nothing else. Per account, per listing; forgetting one loses the shortcut and not the listing. check-in: 96181d8fcb user: dmestas tags: trunk

Wiki pages alone did not need paging — human authorship bounds them at a couple of hundred — but the tree half is unbounded, and the old 400 cap was a dead end with everything past it reachable only by guessing a filter. Pages of 100, since these are one-line rows in two columns.

One function builds every link, so a filter, a sort, a page and the associated-wiki choice cannot lose each other; a stale offset lands on the first page rather than an empty one. The pager type is shared with the tracker now, which is what it always was. closed check-in: fa70fc4958 user: dmestas tags: docs-paging

Orphans and wanted pages, derived from the live text so they cost no storage. Fossil's [Name] is prose until it resolves, so only [[Name]] asks for a page. Filter and sort stay hidden until the list is long enough to need them. check-in: 09d6dfb0ad user: dmestas tags: trunk

Associated wiki — branch/, checkin/, tag/, ticket/ — are notes attached to another artifact, shown on that artifact's page; fossil's own index hides them behind a Show associated wikis checkbox. They are 49 of fossil's 83 wiki pages, so listing them made the index 59% notes about something else. Now hidden, with the same opt-in fossil offers.

Replaces the namespace-collapsing from the previous check-in: that treated the symptom, this is the rule fossil actually defines.

The front door is pinned — a documentation directory's own index, else the README — since fossil has no per-document importance metadata and convention is the honest substitute. Tree documents now carry the author of their last change, which the batched date query was already reading and throwing away. closed check-in: 8459b994d1 user: dmestas tags: docs-tab

Leads with the tickets somebody else answered and left with you, which needs no stored last-seen. Two columns, not three: the third was the feed filtered to one author. The feed's kind chips count exactly the rows they show. check-in: 837a5c908a user: dmestas tags: trunk

The wiki tab showed half a project's documentation. On fossil's own repository it lists 83 pages — 35 branch/ working notes, 7 test fixtures, and 41 real pages last touched in 2018 — while the 113 current documents under www/ had no way in at all.

The tab is now docs and lists both stores in one shape, sortable by name or recency, filterable across both. Where a page is STORED decides how it is edited, not what it is, so the source is a quiet marker on the row rather than a separate section. Namespaces of three or more pages collapse to one row that filters to itself, which is how 35 branch notes stop burying the rest. /wiki keeps working as a permanent redirect.

No count on the tab: the tree half costs a subprocess to size, and a badge reading 83 above a list of 211 is worse than no badge. check-in: 7e2839cf4c user: dmestas tags: docs-tab

/tickets is the same report machinery pointed at all granted trackers: repository becomes a browse axis, rows carry their own repo, and the board and New button stay behind since neither has one repo to mean. check-in: 94a2276f2c user: dmestas tags: trunk

Fossil's docs link each other as Quick Start and those stayed literal text, so a rendered doc was a dead end. Relative targets now resolve for tree documents only — a wiki artifact sits at no path and must not emit links relative to one — and the href is left relative so the browser resolves it against the doc's own URL. Images are served as bytes under the same route the markup already points at.

Also stops double-escaping a character reference the author wrote: fossil's own index rendered "Tips & Hints". closed check-in: 44ba7c78f8 user: dmestas tags: doc-links

The dashboard borrowed ul.tickets; when the tracker became a card it grew three boxes. Its lists are dash-list now, and a feed row shows the commit subject instead of the whole message. check-in: 86bb035b9a user: dmestas tags: trunk

A repository's own docs live in its tree — fossil keeps all of www/ there, not as wiki artifacts — so until now they could only be read as source. /doc/<version>/<path> renders .wiki, .md, .html, .txt and .pikchr, mirroring fossil's dispatch, and anything else redirects to the source view rather than erroring. The URL mirrors the tree path, so a relative link between documents resolves by ordinary browser rules.

Embedded HTML goes through the sanitizer rather than out as written: fossil serves it near as-is and warns about CSP, but quarry serves other people's repositories.

Closes the shape of #6ff10002. closed check-in: af13ea62ef user: dmestas tags: doc-render

/file/trunk/... printed "trunk" as a check-in link, which 404s. The ref now goes to zit for resolution — never the index's branch table, which answers with a branch literally named trunk and is a stale lie on any repository that renamed its default (tk). Only a symbolic ref pays for the lookup. closed check-in: d62d6dfbfb user: dmestas tags: file-version

Node measured in the rail's own weight — line, ring gap and centre dot all 2.5 — so it reads as the logo instead of a squashed version. The upward line on tips was mine: hadAbove read a rail alloc had just pointed at this commit, so every tip drew a line to nothing. check-in: f312b5951d user: dmestas tags: trunk

go:embed reads from disk, so the build was green locally while the file was untracked — a fresh checkout would have failed to compile. closed check-in: 5d5aa3902e user: dmestas tags: wiki-read

Long pages were unreadable: fossil's Cookbook runs 26,000 pixels with 51 headings, no contents, and lines of ~152 characters — its author had hand-written an index at the top, which is the need stated in the only place they could state it. Headings now carry anchors whichever format wrote them (Fossil wiki passes raw HTML through, so half a fossil corpus had none), a contents rail tracks the reading position, and the measure is capped near 65.

The index gains a filter, a sort, revision counts, two columns and the Home page pinned above them. Not paged: the largest wiki in this corpus is 172 pages, and a browse list you page through is one you cannot scan.

Also fixes the global nav-link box leaking into both new rails and into the ticket rail, which drew a border around the current entry. check-in: c195eed2fb user: dmestas tags: wiki-read

The hue was a raw hash mod 360, so two names could land a few degrees apart — ticket-list and fossil-caps rendered as one magenta. Hues now come from nine slots at least 30 degrees apart, with the mainline's blue and the accent's orange left out; a branch keeps its hashed slot unless another branch in view wants it, and assignment is by name so it never depends on commit order. check-in: a754d20b3c user: dmestas tags: trunk

Authenticate accepts an imported §6.3 credential once and upgrades the account to argon2, dropping the imported secret; a wrong guess never consumes it. quarry users pull without --url now reads the store's own table (zit#124/#125) — no credential needed for a repo we already serve. Proven end to end against a real fossil: a user who existed only there signed into quarry with their original password. check-in: 41b085ae25 user: dmestas tags: trunk

The table computed a next page and never rendered it, so a tracker over 50 tickets simply ended. Both views now page by offset with a position line and both ends drawn. Triage order is computed in Go over the fetched rows, so it stays a bounded single page rather than pretending to page.

Only PageURL sets an offset: every other control returns to page one. closed check-in: 0507def643 user: dmestas tags: ticket-paging

State axis with real counts, GitHub-shaped rows, report filters in six axes, a query box that parses into them, table and board views, a browse rail, and a .json link on every report. Chips now mute the value nearly every listed row shares. check-in: a8c4a6c7f5 user: dmestas tags: trunk

It hands a scripter this filtered listing as a machine URL, which is worth nothing until there is a filter — it did not earn a place between the view toggles and the primary button. check-in: b2cac713f3 user: dmestas tags: ticket-list

A branch that committed most recently was taking rail 0, and trunk was inheriting a branch's column at the fork point because the branch line followed its parents there. The default branch (timeline.list now names it) reserves rail 0 whenever it is on the page; other lines converge into it. Absent from view, nothing is reserved and the rest close up. check-in: 6b6121e609 user: dmestas tags: trunk

Every entry is an ordinary report URL, so the rail stores nothing and promises nothing the address bar cannot say. Browse groups count OPEN work and sort by it; clicking the entry you are on removes that axis. Hidden under 64rem, where the dropdowns already reach every value. check-in: 15c58d6fe0 user: dmestas tags: ticket-list

is:closed subsystem:web crash becomes state=closed&subsystem=web&title=crash and redirects there, so the box and the dropdowns are two spellings of one URL rather than two sources of truth. Free words match titles; an unknown prefix stays text. boardData now takes the nav instead of six positionals. check-in: 4138f81f5f user: dmestas tags: ticket-list

Fossil's dense report table as a third view, its headers sorting through a closed ORDER BY whitelist so a clicked column never reaches SQL from a URL. Every view carries a .json link: the same op, same parameters, the report with the presentation stripped. check-in: 306f4eec6a user: dmestas tags: ticket-list

Fetch (admin-credentialed) then import: unknown logins are created with their fossil §6.3 credential and the project code it needs, existing accounts keep their own password, categories land as categories. An unmentioned category keeps quarry's default rather than blanking into a lockout. check-in: f70144e381 user: dmestas tags: trunk

reqconfig /user in one round trip (sync RFC §6, §9.3). The REMOTE enforces admin — a developer gets no rows, a bad password fails login, both pinned against a real fossil. Row format verified against fossil 2.28: one config card per row, quoted key/value pairs. check-in: b2ef1ce14d user: dmestas tags: trunk

subs.go was dirty because gofmt rewrites a pair of apostrophes in a comment into a typographic closing quote; reworded to say empty plainly so formatting is now a fixed point. check-in: 81e89bc4d8 user: dmestas tags: ticket-list
