<title>Fossil Tips And Usage Hints</title>
A collection of useful hints and tricks in no particular order:
1. Click on two nodes of any timeline graph in succession
to see a diff between the two versions.
2. Add the "--tk" option to "[/help?cmd=diff | fossil diff]" commands
to get a pop-up
window containing a complete side-by-side diff. (NB: The pop-up
window is run as a separate Tcl/Tk process, so you will need to
have Tcl/Tk installed on your machine for this to work. Visit

a mimetype of text/plain, of course.
10. When editing documentation to be checked in as managed files, you can
preview what the documentation will look like by using the special
"ckout" branch name in the "doc" URL while running "fossil ui".

11. Use the "[/help?cmd=ui|fossil ui /]" command to bring up a menu of
all of your local Fossil repositories in your web browser.
12. If you have a bunch of Fossil repositories living on a remote machine
that you are able to access using ssh using a command like
"ssh login@remote", then you can bring up a user interface for all
those remote repositories using the command:
"[/help?cmd=ui|fossil ui login@remote:/]". This works by tunneling
all HTTP traffic through SSH to the remote machine.
