vcsrepo

Purpose

This provides a single type, vcsrepo.

This type can be used to describe:

• A working copy checked out from a (remote or local) source, at an arbitrary revision
• A "blank" working copy not associated with a source (when it makes sense for the VCS being used)
• A "blank" central repository (when the distinction makes sense for the VCS being used)

Supported Version Control Systems

This module supports a wide range of VCS types, each represented by a separate provider.

For information on how to use this module with a specific VCS, see README.<VCS>.markdown.
