class VCS (libbe.storage.base.VersionedStorage):
    """
    This class implements a 'no-vcs' interface.

    Support for other VCSs can be added by subclassing this class, and
    overriding methods _vcs_*() with code appropriate for your VCS.

    The methods _u_*() are utility methods available to the _vcs_*()
    methods.

    Sink to existing root
    ======================

    Consider the following usage case:
    You have a bug directory rooted in
      /path/to/source
    by which I mean the '.be' directory is at
      /path/to/source/.be
    However, you're of in some subdirectory like
      /path/to/source/GUI/testing
    and you want to comment on a bug.  Setting sink_to_root=True when
    you initialize your BugDir will cause it to search for the '.be'
    file in the ancestors of the path you passed in as 'root'.
      /path/to/source/GUI/testing/.be     miss
      /path/to/source/GUI/.be             miss
      /path/to/source/.be                 hit!
    So it still roots itself appropriately without much work for you.

    File-system access
    ==================

    BugDirs live completely in memory when .sync_with_disk is False.
    This is the default configuration setup by BugDir(from_disk=False).
    If .sync_with_disk == True (e.g. BugDir(from_disk=True)), then
    any changes to the BugDir will be immediately written to disk.

    If you want to change .sync_with_disk, we suggest you use
    .set_sync_with_disk(), which propogates the new setting through to
    all bugs/comments/etc. that have been loaded into memory.  If
    you've been living in memory and want to move to
    .sync_with_disk==True, but you're not sure if anything has been
    changed in memory, a call to .save() immediately before the
    .set_sync_with_disk(True) call is a safe move.

    Regardless of .sync_with_disk, a call to .save() will write out
    all the contents that the BugDir instance has loaded into memory.
    If sync_with_disk has been True over the course of all interesting
    changes, this .save() call will be a waste of time.

    The BugDir will only load information from the file system when it
    loads new settings/bugs/comments that it doesn't already have in
    memory and .sync_with_disk == True.

    Allow storage initialization
    ========================

    This one is for testing purposes.  Setting it to True allows the
    BugDir to search for an installed Storage backend and initialize
    it in the root directory.  This is a convenience option for
    supporting tests of versioning functionality
    (e.g. .duplicate_bugdir).

    Disable encoding manipulation
    =============================

    This one is for testing purposed.  You might have non-ASCII
    Unicode in your bugs, comments, files, etc.  BugDir instances try
    and support your preferred encoding scheme (e.g. "utf-8") when
    dealing with stream and file input/output.  For stream output,
    this involves replacing sys.stdout and sys.stderr
    (libbe.encode.set_IO_stream_encodings).  However this messes up
    doctest's output catching.  In order to support doctest tests
    using BugDirs, set manipulate_encodings=False, and stick to ASCII
    in your tests.
