First of all, thanks for all the good work. It is a very helpful and useful project and I would like to enchance it.

I've made many changes to this module for our customistaions. A few things can be improved in general as well :

1. Run deployments from any box in the domain****

We can run this module from any server and manage everything using $proxy. I've made the code changes for my organistion and tested it works fine. We can push SSRS deployments from a box that doesn't have SSRS assemblies installed.

2. Support for deploying directly using RDL files I think there is already an issue for this. I've made code changes to support this.

3. Overwriting Reports as well in addition to datasource and datasets I see this is missing, would like to know why. For me, the use-case is that developer made a bug fix to an already deployed report.

-Apart from that some minor changes, like

I'll submit a pull request. Or will upload my own repo, since there are many changes. We can dicusss and then proceed as it will be good for the project.

Thanks, Rahul

Hello Rahul - I have several of the same needs for the items you referenced. You mentioned you had the code updated and were going to issue a PR or update your fork. Unfortunately, I don't see either. Rather than re-invent what you've already done, would you mind submitting a PR please? Thank you!
