When browsing the source of maven-scm, I found maven-scm-client. What's its status? What was the intention? I thought the goal was to have a unique command line working for any kind of providers. But the implemention is rather limited compared the the actual scm API, and seemed to not have updated since a long time.
Is the project abandonned? Was it too ambitious? Or just useless? I ask that because I have written a command tool similar to svn that works for a Merant Dimension repository. My problem is that I written this in python. I would like to rewritte it in java so that the people that are currently using it could maintain it (they are java developpers). And I'm investigating the possibility to rewritte inside the maven-scm framework, and to use an updated version of maven-scm-client as a command line. -- Gilles SCOKART
