Bug#804042: ITP: ros-wstool -- Commands to manage several multi-SCM repositories



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

We (Robotics section of Debian Science team) are packaging 
ROS (Robot OS: http://www.ros.org/) for Debian. ROS uses   
many packages already in Debian, but also has a set of   
core/toolchain/build-system packages which are not yet 
uploaded. This package is part of that ROS system.

Most of the packaging work is already done, and available at
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-science/packages/ros/
 
  Package name    : ros-wstool
  Version         : 0.1.12
  URL             : http://www.ros.org/wiki/wstool
  License         : BSD-3-clause
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Commands to manage several multi-SCM repositories
	
  This package is part of Robot OS (ROS). It provides commands to
  manage several local VCS repositories based on a single workspace
  definition file (.rosinstall). Git, Mercurial, Subversion, and Bazaar
  are supported.
  .
  wstool replaces the rosws tool for catkin workspaces. As catkin
  workspaces create their own setup file and environment, wstool is
  reduced to version control functions only. So wstool does not have a
  "regenerate" command, and does not allow adding non-version
  controlled elements to workspaces. In all other respects, it behaves
  the same as rosws.
