[Resolved] Bug: fossil undo does not update manifest files

(1.2) By Mike Swanson (chungy) on 2026-02-15 04:35:28 edited from 1.1 [source]

As of 2026-02-12T14:30:58Z, perform the following operations:

$ fossil update 20260101
$ fossil undo
$ fossil info | grep checkout
$ grep ^D manifest

There will be an incongruity here between the files that are checked out and what the manifest claims it to be. This causes build systems that use the manifest to embed version information (as Fossil and SQLite do) to embed the wrong version.

A simple fossil update $CHECKIN is enough to get the manifest to what it needs to be.
