It's amusing if not ironic how many comments are something to the effect of "...but how messy and clumsy would the Fossil approach be when working with the Linux kernel that has 1000s of contributors pushing 1000s of commits..." when the sum total of projects approximating the size of the Linux kernel can be counted on one hand, and the authors of such comments are almost certainly not working on such projects.

Not to mention the author of Fossil has clearly stated that Git is great for Linux kernel development, and Fossil was not developed for such a project.
