Converted all uses of the [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/a#attr-name | obsolete] named anchor feature from HTML before 4.0 to use fragment identifiers instead. (<tt>www/*</tt> subtree only.) Where possible, changed constructs like <verbatim><a name="foo"></a><h3></verbatim> to <verbatim><h3 id="foo"></verbatim> Also fixed a few cases where the link target came after a header so the browser would scroll the header off the screen when visiting the targeted section. Added a 50em pad at the bottom of one such edited doc to allow the intra-doc link targets to be useful since it's a short enough doc that on sufficiently tall browser windows, scrolling isn't possible, so using those anchors has no visible effect. ...

Half of [d700f5ff4f215c69 | the prior commit] was unnecessary. Backed it out. ... (check-in: 9a4e87a3b6 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
07:52
Added db_unprotect/pop wrappers around the "clone --ssh-command" handling to avoid a bogus "unauthorized change to protected setting" error, as reported [forum:/forumpost/29027c6a67c280e7 | on the forum]. ... (check-in: d700f5ff4f user: wyoung tags: trunk)

Removed the link to /setup_smtp from the main /admin page: the backing feature was removed [/info/db5c2d399c143a04 | several months ago]. Addresses [forum:/forumpost/413e04bba5 | an anonymous forum post]. ... (check-in: 7aaee6fc31 user: wyoung tags: trunk)

Fixed several "descendents" typos. (It's "descendants".) There's still one remaining in sqlite3.c, but of course fixing that here won't help. ... (check-in: 85f119dc7d user: wyoung tags: trunk)

Adjusted the optional cscope feature so it collects symbols only from the src subdir, primarily to get the bld/* stuff out of the way. ... (check-in: b6cc6f680f user: wyoung tags: trunk)

Comment typo fix in previous ... (check-in: ec5efceb8a user: wyoung tags: trunk)
19:35
The default user capability string for the test-http command — used by ssh:// URLs despite the "test-" prefix! — is now "sxy" to grant all permissions as claimed [/doc/trunk/www/caps/#webonly | in the docs]. While this is objectively correct, it doesn't solve the actual problem I was chasing, being UV sync failure over SSH per [forum:/forumpost/b121db582ee1ed2c | a recent forum post]. ...

Reworked the MinGW outdated instructions in www/build.wiki. It was still warning about a MinGW bug from 2014, and it didn't cover the cross-compilation details at all. That in turn gives us a basis for explaining why cross-compilation may matter even to those who don't realize they're doing so, as in the Cygwin and WSL cases, which then explains why we recommend against using MinGW Make and the USE_WINDOWS=1 mode. ... (check-in: 2c66a5395a user: wyoung tags: trunk)
16:57
Removed a paragraph from www/caps/index.md referencing the now-removed "plink -ssh -T" alternative to "ssh -e none -T" on Windows. This paragraph bordered on "TMI" before, so now that it's going to be increasingly correct as Fossil 2.16+ filters out, it needs to go. ... (check-in: f48a9f71f3 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
16:36
Initialized a pointer to 0 to squish a bogus complaint from GCC 11 on MinGW 9. The code passes ASAN on macOS Clang without this, so I believe GCC is just doing over-eager static analysis across function calls, not realizing that the pointer *will* be initialized before it's used. ... (Closed-Leaf check-in: 54febc1f72 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
16:29
Removed a few bits of src/carray.c that are only needed to allow building the module as a loadable extension. This goes beyond code minimalism, because one of the lines referenced a header we don't provide within Fossil, sqlite3ext.h, which means the only reason this branch compiled before is that it was picking up thje system version, risking a version mismatch when building against the internal SQLite. Build bug caught by initial work on the MinGW port, which doesn't provide that header. ... (check-in: 202ea753e4 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
09:04 Edit [3bcf3abd56df7e0d|3bcf3abd56]: Edit check-in comment. ... (artifact: 4ca919befe user: wyoung)

08:46
[ead1432af9 | An earlier refactoring on this branch] broke the new array-based setting method: got a little too clever with my use of DB handles. ... (check-in: 3bcf3abd56 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
08:45
Comment clarification ... (check-in: c625c259a1 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
08:34
Converted "fossil diff" and "fossil gdiff" to the new array-based setting mechanism. The legacy system(3) style shell command string methods are still available for use with --command and legacy single-string settings, but if you pass 2+ values to "fossil setting diff-command VALUES..." (ditto gdiff-command) it's now stored as an array, triggering this new mechanism. This permits old settings to continue working, letting you upgrade to the new mechanism at will. ... (check-in: 68055fd3ed user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
07:56
Constness fix to the new fossil_spawn() function to avoid compiler complaints on current macOS. ... (check-in: eefb8e64ed user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
07:52
Changed the new json_deserialize_array() interface to make it easier to call correctly. ... (check-in: 765acbc080 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
05:25
Added a JSON array deserializer function and a test-json-deserialize-array command to test it. ... (check-in: dac496b300 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
03:52
Renamed the test-* wrapper for the new JSON array serializer to better match its internal implementation function. NFC. ... (check-in: 06d27250d5 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
03:45
Extracted json_serialize_array() function common to both test-json-carray and settings commands, reducing redundant code. ... (check-in: ead1432af9 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
02:37
Taught "fossil settings" how to accept multiple ?VALUES? parameters, storing the result as a JSON-encoded array in the config table. Nothing uses this yet, but the resulting SQL DB manipulation appears to work correctly. ... (check-in: ca069402f8 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
01:38
Added the carray() virtual table extension from SQLite and added the test-json-carray command to test it. This is needed for the next step on this branch. ... (check-in: 4223fe8cb5 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
2021-06-21
23:03
Added more test cases to test-spawn-* and gave the test cases human-readable names rather than numbers. ... (check-in: 27cdcbbb49 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)
22:37
Created fossil_spawn() as a dumb-as-rocks wrapper for posix_spawnp(2) and created tests to prove that it doesn't double-interpret its args as fossil_system() does. This isn't portable yet; it's just a seed we can use to bring this branch to a PoC state. ... (check-in: fb7c579736 user: wyoung tags: fossil-spawn)

Squished a few minor errors on www/javascript.md ... (check-in: 641a02c8f3 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
2021-06-10
12:17
Extracted point 5 of the whyallinone doc, moving it out of the list of "good reasons why bundling other project management features with the DVCS might be useful" to the end of the doc, since it is not one of those "good reasons". It just explains that no one's forcing you to accept all of these benefits. ... (check-in: ba9e50de58 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
12:10
Tightened up a paragraph in point 8 of the new whyallinone doc to be less redundant, both within itself and with respect to the surrounding material. ... (check-in: 216ef76e70 user: wyoung tags: trunk)
2021-06-09
