Don Brown commented on SCM-182:
-------------------------------
How, in any way, is this screwing with the community? First of all, having a
separate version of the scm 1.1 provider prevents you from having to modify the
release plugin in order to pull in the scm plugin, and second, the code works
so why not have a tagged release today for those of us that don't want to wait
for Maven 1.1?
Open Source is about the freedom to be able to scratch your itch and share the
solution with others; not about some ivory tower club dictating what the masses
use. My branch is freely available in the Maven sandbox, so if you see
something you'd like to merge back or even contribute, please feel free.

> Key: SCM-182
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-182
> Project: Maven SCM
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: maven-scm-provider-git
> Environment: Developed on Mac OS X 10.3.9 with git 1.2.4
> Reporter: Dominik Winter
> Assignee: Jason van Zyl
> Fix For: 1.1
>
> Attachments: git.patch, git.tar.bz2, SCM-182.patch, update1.patch.bz2
>
>
> Please find the git provider as attachment.
> Usefulness:
> I used the git provider together with
> [http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin|maven-release-plugin],
> it works fine for that use case.
> Open issues:
> - the JUnit tests are "proprietary", not yet TCK. I'll fix that.
> If you want to run the tests, you must have git installed and it must be in
> your {{PATH}}.
> To run git:
> - on *Windows*: use [Cygwin|http://www.cygwin.com] and install the binutils,
> openssh, openssl, rsync, curl
> than you are able to compile and install git
> - on Linux: there are packages somewhere
> - on Mac OS X: use the [DarwinPorts|http://www.darwinports.org/]
