Fossil configuration database

File Format
Name	Fossil configuration database
Ontology	Electronic File Formats Configuration files Fossil configuration database
Extension(s)	.db, .fossil
MIME Type(s)	application/vnd.sqlite3
Released	2006

The version control software Fossil keeps its per-user configuration in a file called ".fossil" (with nothing before the dot; something there indicates a Fossil repository database) in the user's home directory. Instead of ".fossil" the configuration database file is sometimes called "fossil.db" on Unix. On Windows the configuration database name is "_fossil". Unusually, this is not a structured text file, but rather a SQLite database, although this is to be expected, given Fossil's love for it. The application ID for a Fossil configuration database is 252006675.
