Wow, thanks a lot! One problem though:

++ ../monotone-0.15/monotone --rcfile=bugrc --db=bug.db fcommit 
529f8b450b873562e147fbaa0902baa186990c5c bug.txt
monotone: discarding debug log
monotone: fatal: std::runtime_error: db query [SELECT data FROM 
revisions WHERE id = '%q']:  wanted 1 columns, got 0

Any hints? (See attachment for a bash script that should recreate the 
problem.)

Thanks, but if it does not follow from some general CLI pattern, then it 
would be selfish of me to request it. I don't think that extra 
maintenance cost is justified now. Maybe after my Wiki takes off...

Thanks a lot
Grzegorz

PS: Monotone is cool, thanks for this soft!!!
