Description Alex 2016-12-07 19:30:15 UTC 
i've built meld from sources (3.16.3) and the same version from debian sid repo. it doesn't open fossil checkout directory (neither meld . nor from menu).
Comment 1 Kai Willadsen 2016-12-07 21:31:06 UTC 
This is sadly the case. Fossil has not been supported since 3.14. Please see:
  https://mail.gnome.org/archives/meld-list/2015-April/msg00003.html.

If you'd like to work on bringing this back, please feel free. However, I'm going to insist that any newly added version control system plugins have a maintainer, for maintenance reasons.
Comment 2 Alex 2016-12-11 11:51:57 UTC 
ok
here http://meldmerge.org/help/vc-supported.html listed the fossil. please, remove it because it is not true (for now).
Comment 3 Kai Willadsen 2016-12-13 23:17:59 UTC 
That's been updated now. Thanks for pointing it out.
