This source code repository houses an in-development library API for the [Fossil SCM][home-fossil]. The primary goal is to port existing behaviour into a library form (the v1 app is extremely monolithic in nature). This effort, officially called "libfossil", intends to introduce no breaking changes, and the intention is to provide an alternative interface into fossil repositories, as opposed to a replacement for the core fossil application. It does not aim to provide 100% feature-parity with the main app - see [](TODOs) for details about features which are considered out of scope (or otherwise unlikely).

This code currently doesn't do much which would interest non-Fossil hackers. It might be of interest to those wanting to follow or participate in the design of libfossil.
