Fossil

Fossil is a free, distributed software configuration management system for controlling and tracking software-project development and history. It combines version control with bug tracking, a wiki, forums, email alerts, chat, and technical notes. Its built-in web interface includes ticketing, documentation, timelines, full-text search, histories, diffs, ZIP downloads, and access management. Fossil is distributed as a single self-contained executable and can run as a standalone server or through CGI, SCGI, inetd, or stunnel. Official precompiled binaries are available for Linux, Mac, and Windows, and it can be self-hosted. Network communication uses HTTPS or SSH; synchronization supports autosync and manual merges, with autosync enabled by default. Repositories use an SQLite database with atomic transactions and consistency checks before commits. The project supports an automatic GitHub mirror and originated as a tool for the SQLite project. Fossil is offered under a 2-clause BSD license. Listed limitations include no file locking, large-file handling, sparse checkout, or nested repositories.
