-   and Fossil automatically opens your web browser in a page that

-   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.
