> In order to manage etc files, bin files, etc, the introduction of Karaf profiles is really helpful.
> I propose to implement a profile based on a diff, patch, merge lifecycle.
> In fact, a profile is diff file on the KARAF_BASE root.
> A set of commands allows to create a diff file, apply a patch (diff) and handle merge issue (when several profiles change the same resources).
> The Google project diff-match-patch (http://code.google.com/p/google-diff-match-patch/) is a candidate that I evaluate for the implementation. It's Apache licensed and looks like a good start.
> I will create a first proto on my github in the following days.
