Support Fossil SCM #2022

Closed dominikschulz closed 2 years ago

dominikschulz commented 2 years ago

We should consider adding support for the fossil SCM. It has a much simpler model than git and handles a few things ootb which we need to work around with git (e.g. autosync, no staging area, ...): https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/quickstart.wiki

Also, it is much easier to backup a Fossil repository (you’ll just need to copy one file). Being a Fossil user myself, I very much support this feature. :)

dertuxmalwieder commented 1 year ago

As announced in #1560 I am currently spending some time trying to make gopass with age and Fossil fulfill my needs. Indeed, it is surprisingly nice to use, although it seems to have hard-coded fallbacks:

  1. Typing a second setup defaults to Git+GPG again,
  2. sync does not work ("Skipped (no Git repo)", why not just run fossil sync?),
  3. I have not figured out how to use a remote Fossil repository yet, the first start wizard is rather silent on that.

Thanks a lot @dertuxmalwieder

Please open individual issues for these and we'll try to fix them.

But here it will get lost.
