Fossil does, but it follows a very different FOSS deveopment style, The Cathedral Style (Git follows the Bazaar style)
Yeah, and I think that nothing that is not git compatible has any chance
Fossil can export it's repos to git & import repos from git
Have I missed something? Does that mean I can use fossil to work on and contribute to git based projects seamlessly?
It's more like; you can maintain a mirror of your fossil project.
Sad, that is the feature that is really needed for an incremental transition. Without it, I do not see that adoption is actually plausible.
There's a hosting service called Chisel.
