RPM

Add VCS tags to packages

Registered by Jeff Johnson

RPM already has (but little used) CVSTag: and SVNTag: syntax.

The intent was to permit the ability to add tags tracked into VCS systems.

The Maven designed URI's handle many more VCS systems in a URI ( http://maven.apache.org/scm/scms-overview.html )

There is a similar problem discussed here "exploded source SCM Repos" http://people.redhat.com/dledford/

Whiteboard

The existing CVStag/SVNtag *.spec syntax should be generalized into the Maven URI's.
