I could do this, using ert. The question is which repositories to use
for tests. Something to be created on the fly, via `vc-create-repo' and
friends?
That might work pretty well for the backends with a local repository
(git, bzr, hg and alike), but what to do with the other ones?
And, btw, I did it already for `vc-registered' and Tramp. You can see it
in test/automated/tramp-tests.el, testcase `tramp-test29-vc-registered '.
Maybe I could extend this kind of test.
Best regards, Michael.
