API enhancement for SSCM vendor compatability
---------------------------------------------
Key: SCM-54
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-54
Project: Maven SCM
Type: Improvement
Components: maven-scm-api
Reporter: Mike Esler
As discussed on the mailing list, we should add a reserved/uunreserved boolean
to the checkout command.
Also, provide a bind() command which binds a local directory to an
SCM-controlled project. There should be a corresponding release() method as
well.
Thus, the calling pattern to get files out of a repository would always be a
2-step process:
bind(localDirectory, remoteProject)
checkout(localDirectory, fileset, reserved/unreserved)
This will open the door for integrations with a lot of SCM vendors, and allow
us to clean up the SCM provider in the Wagon code.
