Paleontologists from Fundación Dinópolis have identified the first confirmed Diplodocus fossils found outside North America, discovered in Spain's Teruel province and dating to 150 million years ago. The 25-meter sauropod's remains provide evidence that dinosaurs dispersed between North America and Europe during the Late Jurassic by crossing temporary land bridges.
Fourteen tail vertebrae discovered in eastern Spain represent the first confirmed Diplodocus fossil found outside North America, dating to approximately 150 million years ago during the Late Jurassic. The finding strengthens evidence that dinosaurs migrated between Europe and North America when temporary land connections may have existed across the developing proto-Atlantic Ocean.
Fossil allows users to create private branches using the --private option to keep experimental or preliminary work local without sharing across clones. Private branches can later be merged into public branches to share changes, or synced between repositories using the --private flag on sync/push/pull commands with appropriate user permissions.
A developer discusses their migration from Git to Fossil version control system, citing concerns about Rust adoption in Git and preferring Fossil's simpler design, C implementation, built-in web server, and interoperability with Git. The article provides installation and import instructions for switching personal projects from Git to Fossil.
