[kepler-dev] SVNKit

[jing]

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 <http://svnkit.com/license.html> 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
