Hi Jing,
The build system already issues all sorts of commands to SVN without
using a library such as SVNKit. I have purposely avoided using that
library precisely because of licensing restrictions. However, I have
found that I am able to do all the svn commands I want, including SVN
checkouts, without it. Why not look at existing code (i.e. in
Get.java) as an example.

Hi, devs:
I am working on creating a kepler server version installer. It will
include kepler, workflow run engine and workflow scheduler.
Building the installer will involve the svn command, e.g. checking
out workflow scheduler and run engine components from svn
repositories. To my understanding, the jobs of kepler build system
are done by java classes, not in the build.xml. So we need a java
library to handle the svn actions. The library will provide a SVN
API for the java class which builds the installer.
I looked a around and found a pure java toolkit - SVNKit. It has
dual licensing - TMate Open Source License and Commercial License.
The TMate Open Source License permits you to use SVNKit at no charge
under the condition that if you use the software in an application
you redistribute, the complete source code for your application must
be available and freely redistributable under reasonable conditions.
It is similar to GPL license. The details can be seen at :
http://svnkit.com/license.html
Can we add the svnkit jar files into kepler/build-area/lib? If we
can't, does anybody have any other recommendation?
Thanks,
Jing
