Greetings friends,

We are in the process of using Fitnesse and maybe it could become handy to put our pages under source control. This is why i'm here.

First i cloned your repo and run a "mvn clean install". The build failed because:

[ERROR] Failed to execute goal on project fitnesse-git-plugin: Could not resolve dependencies for project org.fitnesse:fitnesse-git-plugin:jar:1.2-SNAPSHOT: Could not find artifact org.fitnesse:fitnesse:jar:20100303

I found the jar in question (being a very old version of Fitnesse), installed the jar manually and finally managed to create fitnesse-git-plugin-1.2-SNAPSHOT.jar

My question is: Will this jar work with my latest Fitnesse installation (20140630), so, is this plugin compatible with all versions of Fitnesse? I thought to change your pom.xml, put the latest fitnesse version as dependency and rebuild, but is there a point to do that?

Thank you in advance for your answer.

Thanks for trying out the plugin. I created it in order to help business analysts modify FitNesse pages without having to deal with Git commands. If you are planning to put your FitNesse pages under source control for just developers to use or control, I wouldn't recommend using this, just check in a "fitnesse" folder with your project. If you have FitNesse running on a central server for non-technical people to review requirements, then this plugin might be appropriate.

I haven't tried it with the latest version of FitNesse, but I think I saw some release notes recently that mentioned something about removing all SCM from FitNesse. I would like to know what you run into when trying the newest version.

Kind Regards, Tim
