-----------------------------
Summary: Revert CLI tools to using git
Key: CB-2164
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2164
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: CLI
Affects Versions: 2.3.0
Reporter: Filip Maj
Assignee: Filip Maj
Fix For: 2.4.0
There are too many issues with removing git as a dependency.
First, with future support coming for moving between different versions, we
will likely need to download and extract multiple versions of the git repos.
Second, removing the git dependency and going with just tag downloads from
github is difficult at this time as the github mirrors are inconsistent and
keep getting backed up.
One thing that is stable is the canonical source repo.
For this issue, remove downloading and extracting tag zipballs. Instead, clone
the source and checkout the needed tags as necessary.
