Summary405: Allow wadf to have a config option for a program that generate the dep-tags so that checkout can be compared
DescriptionAt the moment wadf cannot do anything about extra checkouts as it does not know about them,
when reprocessing against dep-tags it would be useful to check against them and see if the checkouts match.

dep_tag_generate = deploy-info -y
TagsNo tags attached.

This sounds useful. I think it actually consists of two parts?

1) an option to allow an external program to generate what it thinks the currently-installed dependencies are

2) compare the output of the program with the dep tags

The main challenge I see is that (2) is very sensitive to the format/ordering of the file, although I suppose as long as the same tool is used to generate the dep tags in the first place then it should not be too much of a problem.
Also WADF should probably only warn rather than try to fix the differences, do you agree?
