RightScraper provides a simple interface to download and keep local copies of remote repositories up-to-date using the following protocols: * git: RightScraper will clone then pull repos from git * SVN: RightScraper will checkout then update SVN repositories * tarballs: RightScraper will download, optionally uncompress and expand a given tar file On top of retrieving remote repositories, right_scraper also include "scrapers" that will analyze the repository content and instantiate "resources" as a result. Currently supported resources are Chef cookbooks and RightScale workflow definitions.
