[ITA] fossil

[ITA] fossil

[Jan Nijtmans]

I would like to adopt fossil. I've packaged the latest release. The
main reason I am offering this, is that I'm noting that fossil
is falling behind the upstream version (1.33, currently), and
I don't see any action taken on Corinna's request to convert
the build system to cygport:

So, that's what I did, and it is completed now, ready to be
reviewed by anyone interested. Since I'm already building
a win64 version and a Docker version for every fossil
release, additional Cygwin(32/64) builds are not that much
additional work any more.

If Jari intends to keep fossil maintenance and wants to
use my work as starting-point for a cygport build, that's
fine with me too. Fossil doesn't get the attention it
deserves, and distributing an older version in Cygwin
is just a pity. I'm glad to help with that in any way I can.
