Michael Osipov created MRELEASE-1089: ----------------------------------------
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. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.7#820007)
