Looking in sqlite.fossil there are 27 tables in it and most are not used for storing blobs. I know when looking up how to do things in the past the answer has sometimes been "run this SQL query". The event table for instance looks like a list of all commits with dates and comments etc. There is a config table that looks like the kind of stuff git stores in .git/config (URL to upstream repo etc) and so on. Well, yes there are some blobs in it too.
- rakoo 3y agoAs described in https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/tech_overview.wiki https://fossil-scm.org/home/doc/trunk/www/tech_overview.wiki, all the commits are stored as artifacts, and then fossil creates metadata tables for quick access to useful information. Configuration of a repo indeed isn't defined as an artifact but as a SQLite table. One may wonder if this should be part of a repo, and I would say it should, so it actually is surprising that it's not also stored as artifacts
