**stx:libscm** is a new source code management library for [Smalltalk/X][1]. Currently only [Mercurial][2] is supported
|
|
|
4 |
but its design allow for other source code management systems to by plugged in if required.
|
|
|

|
|
|

The Mercurial support consist of:
|
|
|
7 |
|
|
|
8 |
* low-level Mercurial API allowing to query and manipulate Mercurial repositories
|
|
|
9 |
* Integration into Smalltalk/X IDE allowing to commit, branch or merge Smalltalk/X packages directly within Smalltalk/x IDE.
