        Overview
        --------
        
        HCM was created after a frustrating attempt to merge changes from one program to another.
        Even after carefully performing the merge, there were issues.
        We fixed an issue with a component shared between programs, and wanted to push the change back to another program.
        This would have required another merge.
        SVN can handle it, put it gets really messy to do it manually.
        
        This was turning into a nightmare just to pass updates between multiple concurrently running programs.
        I was inspired by PIP, and how easy it is to install python packages.
        I wanted to bring that same level of ease to HDL design.
        
        Key Benefits
        ------------
        
        *   Provides a method to control versions of IP
        *   Controls the distribution of HDL code
        *   Follows the Major.Minor.Patch method of version control
        *   Language independent (VHDL, Verilog, System Verilog)
        *   Can be used to control vendor IP
        
        Key Features
        ------------
        
        *   Works with SVN repositories
        *   Automates publishing of code to a central location
        *   Automates installing and upgrading of code
        *   Supports multiple IP repositories
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        You can get the latest released version of HCM via **pip**.
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
           pip install hcm
        
        The latest development version can be cloned...
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
          git clone https://github.com/jeremiah-c-leary/hdl-component-manager.git
        
        ...and then installed locally...
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
          python setup.py install

        It can be invoked with:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
           $ hcm
           usage: hcm [-h] {create,install,list,publish} ...
           
           Provides configuration management for HDL components.
           
           positional arguments:
             {create,install,list,publish}
               create              creates a component repo
               install             adds a component from the component repo
               list                lists components and their versions
               publish             Adds components to the component repo
           
           optional arguments:
             -h, --help            show this help message and exit
        
        HCM has four subcommands:  create, install, list, and publish.
        
        create
        ~~~~~~
        
        Use the **create** subcommand to create a new component repository.
        The arguments for the subcommand can be listed using the *-h* option:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
           $ hcm create -h
           usage: hcm create [-h] url
           
           positional arguments:
             url         location to create the base component repo
           
           optional arguments:
             -h, --help  show this help message and exit
        
        install
        ~~~~~~~
        
        Use the **install** subcommand to add or upgrade a componet from the component repository.
        The arguments for the subcommand can be listed using the *-h* option:
        
        .. code-block:: bash
        
           $ bin/hcm install -h
           usage: hcm install [-h] [--url URL] component version
           
           positional arguments:
             component   Component name to install
             version     Major.Minor.Patch version of component to install, or latest to
                         grab the latest version.
           
           optional arguments:
             -h, --help  show this help message and exit
             --url URL   location of component directory in repo
        
        list
        ~~~~
        
        Use the **list** subcommand to check the versions of components you have installed.
        The arguments for the subcommand can be listed using the *-h* option:

        publish
        ~~~~~~~
        
        Use the **publish** subcommand to push a version of a component to the component repository.
        The arguments for the subcommand can be listed using the *-h* option:
