Very cool.
However, I wonder if the patches to the Trac source are necessary.
IIUC
the plan is to have a "namespace package" called "tracvc" that version
control plugins will install under and they will be automatically
enabled. I'm not sure what the status is in the trunk for this, so
maybe the patches will be necessary until some further refactoring of
the version control layer is done.
Cboos, can you comment on that?
I don't like the idea of providing some magic namespace where plugins
are automatically enabled (outside of the main "trac." namespace, of
course).
The setuptools sandbox branch provides a "tracext" namespace package,
but that's only to avoid plugins polluting the main Python package
namespace (as is happening right now, unfortunately). Plugins in that
package are *not* automatically enabled.
For versioncontrol plugins, I think the need to auto-enable will go
away as soon as we simplify "trac-admin initenv", so that it no
longer requires any mandatory arguments. Configuring the repository
with the corresponding VC plugin would then be done after an
environment has been initialized, from within WebAdmin or directly in
trac.ini.
Cheers,
Chris
