>From the source code:
public interface ScmProvider
I'm very under time pressure:
We have our own (limited scm support) and have to decide until Monday
whether we join to scm-maven (of course we would make all modifications
available) or extend our scm implementation.
For us it is a must that we can get the list of files of a directory
directly from the repository and we must also support huge projects (thus an
entire checkout is not an option).
"svn list -v" does exactly what we need. For CVS we could execute:
cvs checkout -l .... DIRECTORY
into a temporary directory read the contents of CVS/* files (to get
revision, modification date etc.) and remove the temporary directors.
I don't know ClearCase but I guess it has also a list command.
If we join to scm-maven we will very probably implement CM-Synergy because
one of our customers uses only Cm-Synergy it.
Please give me hints as soon as possible.
