We use a propriatary VCS that I am trying to convince my peers to move
away from. The problem is that there is a lot of history, change sets,
and branches that would need to be converted, and there is no tool that
exists to convert from this "home-grown" system.
If there was a generalized API with extensive documentation that described
how to retrieve a change set, mitigate changeset, merge, checkin,
checkout, brach, etc, so that tailer could then use these callouts to push
or pull changes between an unsupported VCS and one of the built in.
As a first step, it could define the callouts that pull change sets. As a
second it could then define push callouts to allow generalized conversions
between two unsupported VCSs.
