Suggestion: store repository URLs for projects with an unsupported VCS
At the moment if a project uses an unsupported VCS, the best option currently is to select Ohloh doesn't support this project's source control system (e.g. Mercurial, Darcs, etc.)
.
Some problems with this include:
Ohloh has no idea what system the project does use. So it has no way to gauge the popularity of individual unsupported systems.
If Ohloh does add support for a new VCS, users will have to go through filling in the enlistments. If users could provide URIs now, there would be a bunch of branches to scan immediately.
I can get information about VCS location for projects using a supported VCS directly from the Ohloh site. This would be useful information for other projects even if the branch contents are not yet being scanned.
