AMP: Cross-repo version control in Ruby

on YouTube ↗41m

" summary

Claims a single Ruby API that abstracts multiple VCS formats and gives you a customizable ampfile DSL for commands; the project ships a usable release (john locke 0.53) with full Mercurial support and a gem you can install today. Implementation uses pure Ruby APIs, ERB templates and Trollop for option parsing, but GPL relics from the Mercurial port force licensing choices and git support proves trickier; a refactor called amp redux modularizes amp-front, amp-core and repository plugins and is mid‑rebuild.
