ASF GitHub Bot commented on MJAVADOC-787: ----------------------------------------- laurentgo opened a new pull request, #326: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-javadoc-plugin/pull/326 Similar to MCOMPILER-582, automatically disregard the `--release` flag for javadoc version < 9 Following this checklist to help us incorporate your contribution quickly and easily: - [x] Make sure there is a [JIRA issue](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC) filed for the change (usually before you start working on it). Trivial changes like typos do not require a JIRA issue. Your pull request should address just this issue, without pulling in other changes. - [x] Each commit in the pull request should have a meaningful subject line and body. - [x] Format the pull request title like `[MJAVADOC-XXX] - Fixes bug in ApproximateQuantiles`, where you replace `MJAVADOC-XXX` with the appropriate JIRA issue. Best practice is to use the JIRA issue title in the pull request title and in the first line of the commit message. - [x] Write a pull request description that is detailed enough to understand what the pull request does, how, and why. - [x] Run `mvn clean verify -Prun-its` to make sure basic checks pass. A more thorough check will be performed on your pull request automatically.
