> currently ScmFileStatus just reports whatever the provider gave back, but
> means different things in different SCM's.
> eg. "updated" in CVS is UPDATED or PATCHED, in SVN it is UPDATED or MERGED.
> "added" in CVS is UPDATED, in SVN it is ADDED.
> The API should hide this from the user, though perhaps be able to give the
> extended info if necessary.
> I suggest isXXX flags instead:
> isUpdated()
> isAdded() - just came from an update
> isMerged()
> isInConflict()
> isNew() - new locally
> etc.
