I'm sorry for my late reply, I was quite busy with other issues.

Yes, there will be a problem with compilation. We would have to either access
the SSHTOOLS by reflection, which is not nice, or host the SSH-enabled version
of the javacvs library somewhere else. But I believe that we'll be able to sort
out the licensing and include the SSH support into javacvs.

Please upload the zipped changes you have together with SSHConnection to
contrib. I'll check what all 3rd party jars are necessary (I expect that all
jars that are in j2ssh-0.2.4/lib, hopefully with the exception of
xercesImpl.jar and xmlParserAPIs.jar, XML support is already a part of NetBeans
distribution; and obviously compiled jars from j2ssh-0.2.4/dist/lib).

I hope that licensing issues will be resolved, there's already a bunch of 3rd
party jars distributed with NetBeans anyway.

Thanks a lot,
Martin
