Fossil UI
Export current git repository to Fossil database and launch web UI for browsing.
Workflow
1. Verify Prerequisites
which fossil && fossil version
If fossil not installed:
# macOS
brew install fossil
# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt-get install fossil
2. Generate Database Path
Store in temp directory with project-based naming:
/tmp/fossil-ui/<project-dirname>.fossil
Example: /Users/choi/.claude -> /tmp/fossil-ui/claude.fossil
mkdir -p /tmp/fossil-ui
3. Clean Existing Database
Remove existing database before creating new one (ephemeral usage):
rm -f /tmp/fossil-ui/<name>.fossil
4. Export and Import
git fast-export --all | fossil import --git /tmp/fossil-ui/<name>.fossil
5. Launch Fossil UI
fossil ui --page timeline /tmp/fossil-ui/<name>.fossil
If port 8080 is in use:
fossil ui --page timeline -P 8081 /tmp/fossil-ui/<name>.fossil
Browser opens automatically to timeline view. Press Ctrl+C to stop the server.
Notes
- Fossil admin password is displayed during import (save for UI admin access)
- Database is self-contained single file
- Verify import:
fossil info -R /tmp/fossil-ui/<name>.fossil - Temp files are cleaned on system reboot
