Fetching packages from various vcs in your buildout ¶

I've recently released a buildout extension to checkout packages in a buildout from various vcs.

Here is a buildout config used to install this blog's skin package. This checkout deliverance from svn and pyquery from his bitbucket repository:

[buildout]
newest=false
parts = eggs
index=http://pypi.zopyx.com/
develop=
    .
extensions=gp.vcsdevelop
vcs-extend-develop=
    svn+http://codespeak.net/svn/z3/deliverance/trunk#egg=deliverance
    hg+ssh://bb/olauzanne/pyquery/@tip#egg=pyquery

[eggs]
recipe=zc.recipe.egg
eggs=
    GawelOrgSkin

This extension is less than 100 lines of code. All checkout stuff is handle by pip which support many vcs.
