----------------------------------------

             Summary: Reduce the tag format to the project version only
                 Key: MRELEASE-1089
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRELEASE-1089
             Project: Maven Release Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: scm
            Reporter: Michael Osipov
            Assignee: Michael Osipov
             Fix For: 3.0.0-M6


Back in the days when this plugin was written and all ASF Maven-based projects 
used the ASF Subversion repo, the common practice was to have 
trunk/branches/tags for all component groups instead of the common sense to 
have one dir per project with trunk/branches/tags. This resulted that the ASF 
diverged from the common practice and basically imposed 
{project.artifactId}-{project.version} tag format to the entire Java world. 
With the emerge of Git one could only have one project per repo where this 
approach was pointless anyway.

Proposal: since this is an overhauled practice, it is neither fruitful for 
Subversion, Git or Mercurial and a prefix which is appended to every tag is 
redudant, replace this format with the version only like many others do now.
