Representation of SCM repositories and commits?

[shtrom]

Hi,

I've been playing with mroth/lolcommits, and making a plugin for e14n/pump.io, which uses ActivityStreams at its core. At the moment, I'm simply posting an image object with the commit message as its title/content, same as the Twitter plugins did, but @evanp suggested to use a more semantically-correct activity.

There doesn't seem to be any provision to represent repositories and commits so far, so I thought this issue could start a discussion about it.

In my understanding, we would need some basic concepts of repositories, which might need to be specialised for a specific SCM (e.g., Git, SVN, ...), and then add new verbs to represent commits (probably pushes too (see lolcommits/lolcommits#142). Aliases of “add” or “append” should do the trick.

Any thoughts?
