Merry Christmas.

I've prototyped an extension to BitKeeper that provides tarballs
and patches.  The idea is to make it possible for all trees hosted by
bkbits.net provide access to the data with a free client (included below
in prototype form).

The system is simplistic, it just provides a way to get the most recent
sources as a tarball and then any later updates as a patch.  There is
no provision for generating diffs, editing files, merging, etc.  All of
that is something that you can write, if you want, using standard tools
(think hard linked trees).

Before rolling this out, I want to know if this is going to (finally)
put to rest any complaints about BK not being open source, available on
all platforms, etc.  You need to understand that this is all you get,
we're not going to extend this so you can do anything but track the most
recent sources accurately.  No diffs.  No getting anything but the most
recent version.  No revision history.  

If you want anything other than the most recent version your choices
are to use BitKeeper itself or, if you want the main branches of the
Linux kernel, the BK2CVS exports.  This is not a gateway product, it
is a way for developers to track the latest and greatest with a free
(source based) client.  It is not a way to convert BK repos to $SCM.

If the overwhelming response is positive then I'll add this to the
bkbits.net server and perhaps eventually to the BK product itself.

--lm

Example of it being used on the mysql BK repo (note that server/port is
hardwired, it is a prototype after all)
