* Backport style changes in tests and Defaults.scala
This backports the scripted tests and Defaults.scala style changes to
use `build.sbt` and `:=`.
* Fix backport
* Deprecate the old operators `<<=`, `<+=`, and `<++=`
The no-longer-documented operators `<<=`, `<+=`, and `<++=` are
deprecated in anticipation of the removal in sbt 1.0. Ref #2711
For `<<=`, the suggested migration would be to use either `:=` or `~=`
operators. The RHS of `<<=` takes an `Initialize[_]` expression, which
can be converted to `:=` style by wrapping the expression in
parenthesis, and calling `.value` at the end.
This adds support to generate synthetic subprojects from an auto plugin.
In addition, a method called `projectOrigin` is added to distinguish
Organic, BuildExtra, ProjectExtra, and GenericRoot.
Calling the `.value` method on an input task returns `InputTask[A]`, which is completely unintuitive. I think it's basically a bug in `.value`. This change deprecates the `.value` call on input tasks, in preparation to the removal in sbt 1.0.
In most cases `.evaluated` should be called, which returns `A` by evaluating the task. Just in case `InputTask[A]` is needed, `inputTaskValue` method is now provided.
One of the motivation for doing this now is the deprecation of old operators `<<=`, which forces more users to convert to the `:=` style and potentially run into the `.value` behavior.
This adds `new` command, which helps create a new build definition. The
`new` command is extensible via a mechanism called the template
resolver,
which evaluates the arbitrary arguments passed to the command to find
and run a template.
As a reference implementation [Giter8][g8] is provided as follows:
sbt new eed3si9n/hello.g8
This will run eed3si9n/hello.g8 using Giter8.
