Stephen Connolly commented on MPIR-234:
---------------------------------------
Say you are looking at a projects site.
You say, "oh where's the source code".
You go to the "source repository" report for that module.
It tells you: "this module is part of the XYZ repo. You can only checkout that
SCM type's repos in full... Not a sub module only. To check out the smallest
individual unit use the following command: ____. Then to get to this module: cd
abc/def/ghi"
That is what should be in a sub module's site for Git/Accurev/etc.
Why? Because navigating module sites to find the parent can be tricky... Even
when it isn't, finding the module within the resulting checkout can be tricky
(we had an Accurev repo with 40+ modules back in 2008 at a former employers
before we migrated to SVN)

> Key: MPIR-234
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPIR-234
> Project: Maven Project Info Reports Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: scm
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Mirko Friedenhagen
>
> I have setup a simple multi module project (see
> https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample/tree/multi-site-complex)
> which uses git on github as {{scm}}. While rendering the site, MPIR will by
> default add the name of the module to the SCM-URLs in source-repository.html.
> So instead of https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample/ I see
> https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample/core/,
> g...@github.com:mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample.git/core and
> git://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample.git/core in the report for
> the core module. All these URLs are invalid. For SVN this could be assumed to
> be the right behaviour, for git and probably other SCMs this is not true. As
> a workaround I have to reconfigure the scm section (see
> https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample/blob/multi-site-complex/core/pom.xml)
> in the modules like this:
> {code:xml}
> <scm>
> <connection>${project.parent.scm.connection}</connection>
>
> <developerConnection>${project.parent.scm.developerConnection}</developerConnection>
> <url>${project.parent.scm.url}</url>
> </scm>
> {code}
