  Description     : code coverage command for javascript

 Most code coverage libraries do weird things I don't like, such as writing
 all their junk to directories and files in a completely out-of-band way.

 Covert only uses stderr and stdout, and doesn't write to any files. It
 bundles with browserify --bare and a transform instead of hijacking
 require(). All the reporting goes through a unix pipeline on process.stdin
 and process.stdout. It works really well with simple unix pipelines.
 .
 Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine.

Node-covert is needed for several node packages and would be best maintained
within the Debian Javascript Team.
