I'm trying fossil as my new VCS, since I'm a lone developer working on small projects. I started testing fossil but I encountered a (probably major newbie) problem. How does one push or pull to another directory (which is easy on Hg). Fossil pull or push commands expect a URL and not a directory. When I start a server in one directory and try to push from another directory I get the "server loop" error message. Any ideas?

When I tried this, clone and pull worked just as expected WITHOUT running a fossil server.
Create a master repository
Clone the master repository
Modify the master
Pull from the modified master
