Peter Hansson created SCM-799: --------------------------------- Summary: Implement export command Key: SCM-799 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-799 Project: Maven SCM Issue Type: Improvement Components: maven-scm-provider-mercurial (hg) Reporter: Peter Hansson
Currently the hg provider does not implement the {{export}} command. Recap: The {{export}} command terminology originates from the SVN world. It means to get the sources without the SCM stuff, just sources, nothing else. The equivalent in Mercurial world is {{hg archive}}. It was first implemented in 2006 (in version 0.9). I don't see a reason why the hg provider would _not_ support the {{export}} command. Sometimes the source is really all you want. Doing an actual {{checkout}} (aka {{hg clone}}) can take a lot more time than {{export}}. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
