Would it be possible to add vc-fossil to non-gnu elpa? Alas, I've not
managed to get hold of all copyright holders so it could have maybe
been added to Emacs or ELPA.

I haven't looked at that code, so I can't really tell, but most likely
it is, yes. All you need to do is check that it's acceptable according
to our criteria and if so add it to the `elpa-packages` file in the
`main` branch on `nongnu.git`.

If the package meets our criteria, putting it into NonGNU ELPA is
_not_ the next step. The next thing we need to do is have a
conversation with its developers.
We are just beginning to figure out how to have that conversation, so
we can't describe how to do it. Therefore, please tell us about the
package and we will take care of that aspect.

That doesn't need to happen beforehand. It can happen in parallel or
even afterwards (it's sometimes much easier to get a constructive
discussion going with the other side when they can see the actual
package we build and the problems we faced and the solutions we chose,
and other times it's helpful to get their input on how to solve those
problems. One size doesn't fit all).

I'm not sure who you're thinking of with this "we", because I definitely
have no intention of doing that for packages other than the ones I add.

I'm the developer in this case :)

Cool. I'll double check the list of requirements, and fix them if
need be. And post a patch for nongnu.git.

Come to think of this, is there any reason why vc-fossil.el shouldn't
be in core? Is Fossil less important then, say, SCCS or RCS or
WebDAV?

Gathering copyright assignments or disclaimers is the main issue; I
haven't been able to contact one author. The track of changes record
is not optimal either.

To postpone it is running a risk.
I'll write back to you and the other people who work on NonGNU ELPA.

Every choice entails a risk. This is a question of tradeoffs.
When the probably of a conflict is low, optimistic concurrency is
a *much* better choice than pessimistic concurrency.

I know by experience that the risk of assuming someone will do something
and not verifying this by asking per
is substantial. If we have hundreds of such packages in NonGNU ELPA,
I expect that each year will will have several painful surprises
that we will have to clean up.
I insist on this.

[Lets try this again and send it to emacs-devel@. Sorry for the noise.]
So trying to get back to adding vc-fossil to non-GNU ELPA, I tried to
follow the instructions in the README.org, added this to elpa-packages
("vc-fossil" :url "https://github.com/ams/vc-fossil")
And then did,
~/nongnu-elpa $ gmake -f GNUmakefile build/vc-fossil
emacs --batch -l /home/ams/nongnu-elpa/admin/elpa-admin.el \
-f elpaa-batch-make-one-package vc-fossil
Cloning branch vc-fossil:

HEAD is now at f365e4389 vc-fossil.el: Update from fossil.

ELPA uses functions based on version-to-list to find the commit that the
tarball is based on. From the error message you got, it might be that
you were using an invalid versioning scheme. Consider how
(version-to-list "1.0.0") ; => (1 0 0)
but
(version-to-list "1.0..0")
throws an error.

What do you mean, I seem to have everything necessary in the tarball:

Looks like a bug in `elpa-admin.el` in how it extracts the commit date
to generate the <release>.0.<date>.<time> version number used for
GNU-devel.
If you edit `elpa-config` to set `debug` to t and try again we'll see
a more verbose trace which might give us more of a clue.
Notice also that the non-devel package (which is arguably the more
important one) was built successfully.

Looks like a bug in `elpa-admin.el` in how it extracts the commit date
to generate the <release>.0.<date>.<time> version number used for
GNU-devel.
Seems like non-portable date usage, OpenBSD date doesn't have the -d
switch -- this should probobly have some error maybe?
call-process git ("show" "--pretty=format:%cI" "--no-patch")
call-process date ("-d" "2021-09-28T09:18:26+02:00" "+%Y%m%d.%H%M%S")

The code was written first and foremost to run on elpa.gnu.org, yes.
I do welcome patches which improve compatibility/portability, tho.

Does this need to be fixed before vc-fossil can be added to non-GNU
ELPA?
How does one get push rights? Does one need them?

AFAICT the problem has already been fixed, and no it was not necessary
to fix it for vc-fossil (it was not directly related to vc-fossil).

It's the same access rights as for Emacs itself.

Pushed, thanks,
Thank you.
Small suggestion, it would be a good idea to add a time-stamp to the
https://elpa.nongnu.org/nongnu/ page, and in general to any
auto-generated page. Hard to know when it was last updated or not.

This would be fixed by the second of the attached patches.
But I have two issues that maybe Stefan M can help with.
A) It seems like there are two versions of the elpa-admin branch, or at
least that the one in elpa.git is out of synch/outdated?
B) I can't push to elpa-admin from nongnu.git. Am I supposed to do
that?
Probably I'm just confused by this whole worktree business.

I am not sure, but elpa-admin is actually part of elpa.git, have you
tried to push the changes from that checkout?
