Yup that's cool and IMHO could be the default option. My personnal opinion on that. As far I can see most git beginners use git as they use svn. (hey do you remember when you started git and fully break your local clone trying to merge some local branches: don't say to me it never happened :-) ) So our maven tooling must be accessible for the mass (sure extra options for geek/nerds is always welcome :-) ) and be operational for basic/daily stuff of majority of dev folks. > > As can be seen from the wiki, I am somewhat at loss for a good > branchless solution.

I think we can call it svn mode ;) Yup again we must try to build the most generic plugin for most used scm (sure better to concentrate efforts on most populars: svn and git).
IMHO we have a generic tool for building daily operations which must not be focused only on the current "à la mode" scm. And btw some maven projects (I don't want to be focused on tools only for Apache Maven sources) will continue to use for long dependencies with some mix of scm.
