-There are plenty of open-source version control systems available on the
-Internet these days. What makes Fossil worthy of attention?

- 1. Bug Tracking And Wiki - In addition to doing distributed version control
- like Git and Mercurial, Fossil also supports distributed bug tracking and
- distributed wiki all in a single integrated package.

- 2. Web Interface - Fossil has a built-in and easy-to-use web interface that
- simplifies project tracking and promotes situational awareness. Simply type
- "fossil ui" from within any check-out and Fossil automatically opens your web
- browser in a page that gives detailed history and status information on that
- project.

- 3. Autosync - Fossil supports "autosync" mode which helps to keep projects
- moving forward by reducing the amount of needless forking and merging often

- 4. Self-Contained - Fossil is a single stand-alone executable that contains
- everything needed to do configuration management. Installation is trivial:
- simply download a precompiled binary for Linux, Mac, or Windows and put it on
- your $PATH. Easy-to-compile source code is available for users on other
- platforms. Fossil sources are also mostly self-contained, requiring only the
- "zlib" library and the standard C library to build.

+   5. Simple Networking - Fossil uses plain old HTTP (with proxy
+   support) for all network communications, meaning that it works
+   fine from behind restrictive firewalls. The protocol is bandwidth
+   efficient to the point that Fossil can be used comfortably over
+   a dial-up internet connection.
+
+   6. CGI Enabled - No server is required to use fossil. But a
+   server does make collaboration easier. Fossil supports three
+   different yet simple server configurations. The most popular is
+   a 2-line CGI script. This is the approach used by the self-hosting
+   fossil repositories.
+
+   7. Robust & Reliable - Fossil stores content in an SQLite database
+   so that transactions are atomic even if interrupted by a power
+   loss or system crash. Furthermore, automatic self-checks verify
+   that all aspects of the repository are consistent prior to each
+   commit. In over two years of operation, no work has ever been
+   lost after having been committed to a Fossil repository.
