First, I'm not arguing :-), just sharing. If I'm using fossil, I just do. Fossil is built by the people behind sqlite, and issues, wikis, etc... all of the pm stuff is baked in. Tickets that are referenced in check-ins are synced. This improves on github: if another dev has worked on a ticket and their branch hasn't merged yet, the ticket update is visible. Fossil also allows for heirarchal management structures, and so on. Incidentally, fossil's timeline is incredible.

Not saying that fossil is going to replace git/github. Probably not, but there are ways to solve simple information management problems that don't require a centralized, subscription service. By eliminating that, you open the door to much innovation... In the meantime, I've got a pull request or two to review over on Github.

i think fossil has the better architecture and it would probably take off if the baked in webapp were as polished as github. somebody should fork fossil and make a github clone.
