[Gnu-arch-users] configs - extracting from arch

[Robert Collins]

Is there any reason we couldn't move the build config logic completely
out of arch?

I.e. rather than tla buildcfg, cm build ?

And in the config files, change:
./software   address@hidden/dists--devo--3.0
to
./software   arch://address@hidden/dists--devo--3.0
(with an absent protocol defaulting to 'arch')

Thus allowing
./something  cvs:address@hidden:/cvsroot/thing -r tag module

I think this would be very useful to:
extract some cruft from the core
generalise the configuration management features

Thoughts?
Rob
