These seven artifact types are described in the following sections.

make up a fossil repository are stored as delta- and zlib-compressed

is an implementation detail and might change in a future release.  For

<h2>8.0 Card Summary</h2>

The following table summarizes the various kinds of cards that appear
on Fossil artifacts. A blank entry means that combination of card and
artifact is not legal. A number or range of numbers indicates the number
of times a card may (or must) appear in the corresponding artifact type.
e.g. a value of 1 indicates a required unique card and 1+ indicates that one
or more such cards are required.

A single W card provides wiki text for the document associated with the
technote.  The format of the W card is exactly the same as for a
[#wikichng | wiki artifact].

The Z card is the required checksum over the rest of the artifact.

<a name="remark"></a>
<h2>8.0 Remarks</h2>

A remark artifact holds textual remarks that are added to a check-in.
Remarks can hold expanded commentary about the check-in, notes from
code-reviews, information about problems discovered in the check-in,
or other auxiliary textual information about the check-in.
The remark artifact is a new artifact added to this specification in
early 2017.
The following cards are allowed on an technote artifact:

<blockquote>
<b>D</b> <i>time-and-date-stamp</i><br />
<b>G</b> <i>checkin-uuid</i><br />
<b>N</b> <i>mimetype</i><br />
<b>U</b> <i>user-name</i><br />
<b>W</b> <i>size</i> <b>\n</b> <i>text</i> <b>\n</b><br />
<b>Z</b> <i>checksum</i>
</blockquote>

A single D card is required to give the date and time when the
remark artifact was created.

A single G card specifies the check-in to which the remark is
attached.

The optional N card specifies the mimetype of the text of the technote
that is contained in the W card.  If the N card is omitted, then the
W card text mimetype is assumed to be text/x-fossil, which is the
Fossil wiki format.

A single W card provides wiki text for the document associated with the
technote.  The format of the W card is exactly the same as for a
[#wikichng | wiki artifact].

The optional U card gives name of the user who entered the technote.

The Z card is the required checksum over the rest of the artifact.

<a name="summary"></a>
<h2>9.0 Card Summary</h2>

The following table summarizes the various kinds of cards that appear
on Fossil artifacts. A blank entry means that combination of card and
artifact is not legal. A number or range of numbers indicates the number
of times a card may (or must) appear in the corresponding artifact type.
e.g. a value of 1 indicates a required unique card and 1+ indicates that one
or more such cards are required.
