How do you use the CLI version of GetIt Package Manager. I always get a "no items were found." response. As usual, the EMBT wiki is total rubbish and doesn't even mention GetItCmd anywhere.

    To be honest, there is a specific reason for the lack of documentation. The command line version of GetIt is not stable, so it was never "promoted" to being a feature. It was a tentative feature, we likely removed the English doc, but translations remained -- so having that documentation is kind of an error. We ship is as we use it, with a specific command that works and is safe. In other words, use it as your own risk, as it is not an official feature.

    Marco Cantù That's a nice "catch all" answer. [sarcasm] My thoughts... If it's not intended as a feature of Delphi, don't ship it with Delphi.

    Graeme Geldenhuys As I understand, it has to be shipped as long as it is used internally:
