We did have file shuffles, file splits, in pgjdbc, and now it is just a history.

Reshuffling files in two places would make things noticeably harder to maintain since it cannot be handled automatically. For instance, if I move the file, and someone edits the same file in "SVN trunk", then automatic merge can easily handle it as "apply the edit to the renamed file". However if two branches happen to move the file to "slightly different" locations, then automatic merge fails to handle that.

Whoever is willing to support Ant is welcome. PRs can easily be created for my vlsi/jmeter/gradle branch. I'm not investing my time in JMeter's Ant script.

Graham> separate script which does the co-ordination and singing etc. It might be the same Gradle script as well. For instance, I have generateDependencyConstraints Gradle task that converts build.properties. It is trivial to write, IDE autocomplete works there, and it uses the same Gradle's dependency management/UI Vladimir
