-Fossil is a distributed version control and bug tracking system created by
-D. Richard Hipp, primary author of SQLite. Fossil embeds a web server which
-provides a graphical interface for developers, administrators, and end users.
-Features: tamper-resistant immutable artifact record, simple command-line
-interface, coherent versioning across all files, easy branching and merging,
-bisect searches, full-text documentation searches, customizable web interface,
-online activity reports, built-in wiki, SHA3-256 and hardened SHA1 checksums,
-FUSE filesystem, and automated replication and backup. Fossil can host the
-entire project development website, including the download area, but it also can
-be used for individual projects with no need for a server. An interesting
-application is coordination of /etc and other system configuration files across
-a network of computers. Content is stored in an SQLite database for atomicity,
-durability, and easy administration.

+Fossil can host the entire project development website, including the
+download area, but it also can be used for individual projects with no
+need for a shared server.
+
+In addition to typical software development operations, one interesting
+application is coordination and auditing of /etc and other configuration
+files across a network of computers.
+
+Content is stored in an SQLite database for atomicity, durability, and
+effortless administration.
