Hi Taher, All,

I then propose that waiting for another Git solution based, we simply continue 
to use Svn through Github :)

I'm not sure I see this issue with the same perspective. Having the
build system automatically download (and run some code) for a certain
component is a convenience especially for the community components.
Things are even easier when using git as there are many plugins to
support that. I'm also not sure what is "poor" about that

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.

Hello Deepak, all,

I do not have a strong opinion about separating plugins into independent
git repositories but here are my thought :

Plugins integration in OFBiz is intended to be used with a maven
repository that hosts the plugin releases for the users. See as a
reference the ‘OFBiz Plugins tasks’ or README.adoc about ‘OFBiz plugin
system’.

We did not implemented an official maven repository for plugin releases,
so there is no simple way to install a plugin without using VCS. There
might be tasks to be done to have an nice answer to how an user can
install a sole plugin from a downloaded release archive.
