The basic idea is to be able to easily use overlays (without layman). |
2 |
I believe this to be a pre-req to the "Cache Sync" idea listed on the |
3 |
wiki. |

|
5 |
each repo should be able to have a differently defined way of sync-ing |
6 |
(within predefined standards), I think they should also be capable of |
7 |
defining the way that Manifests are handled (I don't think git needs |
8 |
more than distfile manifests, other vcs may be similar). Supported |
9 |
repository types should include rsync, git, svn, hg, bzr, darcs, cvs. |
10 |
each SYNC_METHOD should be isolated from the others in code so that |
11 |
they can be improved/extended easily. |
