Fossil

I recovered my previous repository from backup, and did a new checkout (fossil open) before running 'pull' again. This time it worked.

Worse than that, I think.

fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org/ myclone.fossil

gets an empty repository, but (many) repeated pulls will then get evertyhing up to date.

This might be due to some subtle incompatibility introduced by [737e76a69fbc2e] or a related check-in. Do you have the same problem using a client built from the latest code, or is this only an issue with older clients?

I've been experiencing this same isssue (empty repo on clone) with recent client (i.e.: approx. [ece2]...). Haven't tried repeated pulls as fix, so can't comment.

This is still going on, it took two attempts to download the latest (updated sqlite version) using fossil version [a742cfa292]. This is what I saw:
