<p><b>(6) How do I make a clone of the fossil self-hosting repository?</b></p>
<blockquote>Any of the following commands should work:
<blockquote><pre>
fossil clone http://www.fossil-scm.org/ fossil.fossil<br>
fossil clone http://www2.fossil-scm.org/ fossil.fossil<br>
fossil clone http://www.hwaci.com/cgi-bin/fossil fossil.fossil
</pre></blockquote>
Once you have the repository cloned, you can open a local check-out
as follows:
<blockquote><pre>
mkdir fossil; cd fossil; fossil open ../fossil.fossil
</pre></blockquote>
Thereafter you should be able to keep your local check-out up to date
with the latest code in the public repository simply by typing:
<blockquote><pre>
fossil update
</pre></blockquote></blockquote></li>
</ol>
