Can you checkin changes to the same task several times? If no, then this should map well to a change set (except the task creation). If yes, then I like :)
This may be related: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-38 A follow-up question to all: Is there a plan or vision on how scm-maven should evolve? Should it become a super-set of all SCM commands and features available? What about non-core features like access control, bugtracker integration and audit systems?
