workspace - stage an opened workspace directory

Usage:

The workspace plugin must not be directly used. This plugin is used as the kind for a synthetic node representing the sources of an element with an open workspace.

Reporting SourceInfo

The workspace source reports the project relative or absolute path to the open workspace as the url.

Further, the workspace source reports the SourceInfoMedium.WORKSPACE medium and the SourceVersionType.CAS_DIGEST version_type, for which it reports the CAS digest of the workspace source as the version.

The guess_version of a workspace source is meaningless and omitted.

Attention

Observing a SourceInfo with the SourceInfoMedium.WORKSPACE in the output of bst show –format %{source-info} is most likely undesirable, given that you are likely interested in observing the source provenance information of the project in a clean state rather than in a state with open workspaces.
