Basic Info
Description of contribution in a few bullet points
This presents vcs2l as a wholesale replacement for vcstool and should satisfy any existing dependencies on vcstool without requiring changes to vcs2l itself. It operates under the fact that the existing vcs2l API is similar enough to vcstool that it can simply be installed and used under that name.
When the vcs2l API deviates from vcstool enough, this commit may be reverted and the shim module dropped.
Thanks to @j-rivero for presenting this as a significantly lighter-weight alternative to #90
