Differences From Artifact [5a0ea9d27e]:

• File www/unvers.wiki — part of check-in [fef0ade93f] at 2023-05-03 06:15:44 on branch trunk — Edit pass on the unvers.wiki doc, primarily to replace passive voice phrasing with active voice. Made a few clarifications and grammar tweaks atop that. (user: wyoung size: 4351)

To Artifact [20f28598c0]:

• File www/unvers.wiki — part of check-in [d1a3dda6a7] at 2023-05-03 06:17:33 on branch trunk — Modernized the URL format in the unvers doc: using an actual (reserved) domain name instead of the vague "domain", showing it as "https" since "http" is widely deprecated, and using "tt" tags around it to make it stand out from the surrounding sans-serif text and to prevent it from breaking across word-wrap boundaries.

the self-hosting Fossil repository as unversioned
content, for example.

<h2>Accessing Unversioned Files</h2>

Unversioned files are <u>not</u> a part of a check-out.
Unversioned files are intended to be accessible as web pages using
URLs of the form:  "http://domain/cgi-script/<b>uv</b>/<i>FILENAME</i>".
URLs of the form: "<tt>https://example.com/cgi-script/<b>uv</b>/<i>FILENAME</i></tt>".
In other words, the URI method "<b>uv</b>" (short for "unversioned")
followed by the name of the unversioned file will retrieve the content
of the file.  The MIME type is inferred from the filename suffix.

The content of unversioned files can also be retrieved using the
[/help?cmd=unversioned|fossil unvers cat <i>FILENAME</i>] command.
