> API enhancement for SSCM vendor compatability
> ---------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SCM-54
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-54
> Project: Maven SCM (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: maven-scm-api
> Reporter: Mike Esler
> Priority: Major
>
> As discussed on the mailing list, we should add a reserved/uunreserved
> boolean to the checkout command.
> Also, provide a bind() command which binds a local directory to an
> SCM-controlled project. There should be a corresponding release() method as
> well.
> Thus, the calling pattern to get files out of a repository would always be a
> 2-step process:
> bind(localDirectory, remoteProject)
> checkout(localDirectory, fileset, reserved/unreserved)
> This will open the door for integrations with a lot of SCM vendors, and allow
> us to clean up the SCM provider in the Wagon code.
