Ryan Daum commented on SCM-230:
-------------------------------

I have done some work and put a branch of thurner's repository up at: 

http://darksleep.com/~ryan/maven-scm-provider-hg.cgi

I made changes so that all tests but 3 pass.  One of these failures is related 
to the diff format as noted above.  

The other one, I cannot see an easy way to resolve, as it is part of the Scm 
tests packaged with Maven SCM itself.  Basically, the test tries to add an 
empty directory, then expects to see a status result saying "added" for the 
directory addition.  Hg knows nothing of directories, just the files in them, 
so the hg command returns 0 for the # of files in the status results.  The test 
then fails.  The only thing I can think to do is make the add command "lie" for 
empty directory additions, but this is so hacky I fear it.  Perhaps the CVS SCM 
plugin has some ideas I can pilfer.
