I tried to check out the branch tip of '1.0-branch' in the repository at
Fossil aborted with the following:
<pre>
$ fossil checkout 1.0-branch
fossil: near "HERE": syntax error
UPDATE vfile SET mtime=NULL HERE vid=361 AND mrid&gt;0
$ fossil version
This is fossil version [ba837fd294] 2008-12-16 18:39:29 UTC
