retitle 478117 qct should not talk about hg when the repo has no SCM
severity 478117 wishlist
thanks

  Hi,

  There are two things in this bug report.

The first one is that qct talk about hg when no SCM is used.
I understand that the error/warning message is a bit strange but
this is a bug of severity wishlist, not important.
The output is a bit strange but unless I miss something, qct is working.

Here, this is another bug: qct use cogito instead of git-core to
manage git repo. However, cogito is not packaged in Debian anymore.
This bugs is handled in #488055
There is no really good solution for it for now (unless someone has
some time to code a git-backend for qct).

I think that too, hence the strange error message.

  Best regards,
