historically, maven scm started to develop pure java provider based on svnkit. However svnkit also now has a new license scheme that no longer compatible with apache, and therefor the effort stopped.

Hi there, In my continuing experimentation with maven I was just checking out the release plugin and how it worked but got hit with "'svn' is not recognised as an internal or external command" on my windows laptop. I have no subversion installed as every application I'm using (hudson, idea etc.) all use svnkit [1] - the pure java subversion library (along with java ssh libraries) to provide seamless support of subversion without installing other software. Has anyone looked at, or is it possible to use svnkit as part of the release plugin so to not require installing ssh locally? (This could also lead to writing a ssh/subversion wagon plugin for deployments (I saw this asked about the other day, and is something my boss has mentioned he'd like to see). Any thoughts?
