No need to wait for Maven plugins before acting responsibly. :-)

A preferable solution would be to simply remove the
‘push/pull/removePlugin*’ stuff from our build system which is the
reason why we are discussing keeping this “Github SVN” hack initially.

IMO people can manage their plugins more conveniently by directly
running the “installation” command of their choice ‘git clone’, ‘svn
checkout’, ‘ln -s’, ... in their plugins directory without needing OFBiz
build system to do it poorly for them.
