Hi all,

There are a number of bug reports about improving VCS support in makepkg.  To address many of these, we really need to give this whole part of makepkg an overhaul.

I have create a wiki page [1] where i have made some initial notes and will start filling out brainstorming for ideas on how this could be improved.  Please add any ideas people have for how these could be improved.

My ideas are there. We'll see what you guys think. -Dan
