Jan Lahoda commented on NETBEANS-1302:
--------------------------------------

@lkishalmi, I am afraid that is not correct, as far as I know. As far as I know 
the svnkit integration has been disabled, because some parts of it are under 
licenses that are not allowed in an ASF project. I'd love to be proved wrong, 
but:

-the svnkit library depends on a library that is called sqljet, which appears 
to be under GPL

-the svnkit library itself appears to be under a library that is probably not 
allowed in Apache ([https://svnkit.com/license.html).]

 

AFAIK, the code and the hooks all still exist, so it should be possible for 
someone to build the module and place it on the Plugin Portal, but I don't 
think this Apache project can include that.

 

I am sorry for this, but these are ASF rules, which NetBeans can't affect, IMO.

> In version 9.0 - SvnKit seems to be missing as an option. Because in none of 
> the versions on MacOS I was able to get CLI and JavaHL to work, it is to me 
> critical that at least SvnKit works as a fallback.
