After writing here again and trying to commit to the fossil repo I'm
using for the phlogs I saw an error pop up for every sync. The remote
repo is on my RPi running NetBSD 9.3 and I recently did a pkgin
upgrade which also upgraded apache.
The error has been fixed back in April 2024, but as frequently as I am
updating things nowdays I just now realized it. A quick search showed
that it has been caused by an update of apache (but they are handling
things still according to specs) and of course fossil that was not
prepared for this. Root cause: Content-Length was missing in the
answer from apache, but the fossil client always expected it to be
present.
This caused fossil to moan about server not replying but the push
worked as I could verify in the server repo. However as I read in the
forum posts pull did not work.
They fixed the issue in fossil 2.24 which is included in the NetBSD
9.3 packages for pkgin so the upgrade on the RPi already installed it.
However here on sdf-eu I still ran fossil 2.18 from 2022! As the issue
was more on the client side this old version complained of course. So
I downloaded the sources and compiled version 2.25 and it just works.

We had more snow during the night but then this morning it started to
rain. As the temperature is still around freezing point this could be
nasty. Hopefully it won't turn everything into an ice rink.
I just heard on the radio that multiple flights have been canceled in
Frankfurt and Munich because of the not so ideal weather conditions.
It's just typical that it's "warm" when we are at home during the
holidays and starts snowing the instant we have to go to work...
