Add profile feature
-------------------
Key: KARAF-1130
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KARAF-1130
Project: Karaf
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Jean-Baptiste Onofré
Assignee: Jean-Baptiste Onofré
Fix For: 3.0.0
In order to manage etc files, bin files, etc, the introduction of Karaf
profiles is really helpful.
I propose to implement a profile based on a diff, patch, merge lifecycle.
In fact, a profile is diff file on the KARAF_BASE root.
A set of commands allows to create a diff file, apply a patch (diff) and handle
merge issue (when several profiles change the same resources).
The Google project diff-match-patch
(http://code.google.com/p/google-diff-match-patch/) is a candidate that I
evaluate for the implementation. It's Apache licensed and looks like a good
start.
I will create a first proto on my github in the following days.
