------------------------------

             Summary: gitexe list() implemented incorrectly
                 Key: SCM-869
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-869
             Project: Maven SCM
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: maven-scm-provider-gitexe
    Affects Versions: 1.9.5, 1.9.6
            Reporter: Ilya Basin


Taking the Svn implementation as a model, ScmProvider.list() should be implemented as follows:
 * The command must directly query the remote repository for files
 * A local working copy is unnecessary and if it doesn't exist, the remote repository must not be checked out.
 * fileSet.getBasedir() indicates where to run the scm binary. The recommended value is ".".
 * fileSet.getFileList() indicates the files to list
 * repository indicates the repo URL

Git (among other SCMs) does not support listing remote files, so the command should just fail.

For listing files in a working copy, users should call the ScmProvider.status() method instead.
