[JIRA] (JENKINS-17222) Add ability to specify more than one location when using the svn method

Justin Ryan commented on Improvement JENKINS-17222

Copying from email:

Ideally we'd create a inner context to define concepts like this, like we do for the ant dsl method. The problem is that svn was written before we knew how to do that, so we just took a "configure" object. It's not really possible to make a change to the signature to take a context instead of a configure closure, without making it a breaking change. What do people feel about this? Should we "fix" the p4, svn and git commands?

In some respects, the resulting XML is pretty straightforward, though not completely obvious to someone new. E.g. from the ticket:

svn('https://some.repo.com/proj1/trunk', 'project1') \{
    it / locations / 'hudson.scm.SubversionSCM_-ModuleLocation' \{
    remote 'https://some.repo.com/proj2/branches/qwe'
    local 'project2_qwe'
  }
}


Maybe we can just document this (and pretend that the scm commands aren't as ugly as they are)?
