Option to ignore checkout when checkoutDirectory exists
-------------------------------------------------------

         Key: SCM-201
         URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-201
     Project: Maven SCM
        Type: New Feature

  Components: maven-plugin  
    Versions: 1.0-beta-3    
 Environment: xp, starteam
    Reporter: Dan Tran


I have a need to pull mulitple legacy source trees from various scm:url into my 
local directory and invoke antrun to work on those trees.

So I use multiple executions of maven-scm-plugin:checkout to fetch the source 
at initialize phase, then invoke antrun to do the rest.
The annoy thing for every build is that scm:checkout remove my source tree and 
then fetch the source.  This is the behavior we want
for normal case.  However for my case the checkout is  a lengthy process.

I would like to propose a new optiontion  param skipCheckoutIfExists, with 
default to false to checkout mojo.

WDYT? skipCheckoutIfExists name sound acceptable?
