  Note that not long after writing that, he moved his projects to github because a (since-fixed) bug in fossil caused data-loss.

    If you actually read through the discussion on the mailing list, what Zed did (as I recall it from when this was news years ago) was screw up an operation, run into a bug, panic and start hammering on the repo to try to undo the problem that arose, and basically destroy the repo's ability to roll back what he did.

      That sounds right to me, though to be fair, I was the one who screwed up the operation, not Zed. It was my very first time using Fossil.
