Contrast third-party mailing list and forum software where you either end up with two separate user tables and permission sets, or you must go to significant effort to integrate the two login systems. You may instead choose to host your forums in a Fossil repository separate from your project's main Fossil repository. A good reason to do this is that you have a public project where very few of those participating in the forum have special capability bits for project assets managed by Fossil, so you wish to segregate the two user sets. Yet, what of the users who will have logins on both repositories? Some users will be trusted with access to the project's main Fossil repository, and these users will probably also participate in the project's Fossil-hosted forum. Fossil has a feature to solve this problem that is probably less well known than it should be, which has been in the software since April of 2011: Admin → Login-Group, which allows one Fossil repository to recognize users authorized on another Fossil repository. <h3>Email Notification</h3> See [./emaildesign.md | the email notification design document] for now. More administration-oriented documentation TODO. |
