Elliotte Rusty Harold updated MCHANGES-409: ------------------------------------------- Issue Type: Bug (was: Improvement) > allow to completely skip github report > -------------------------------------- > > Key: MCHANGES-409 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MCHANGES-409 > Project: Maven Changes Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: github > Affects Versions: 2.12.1 > Reporter: Luc Maisonobe > Priority: Major > > When using changes plugin on a project hosted at GitHub, there is always > an attempt to connect to GitHub even when reportSet contains *only* > changes-report and nothing related to GitHub. > > This creates several problems. The first one was already identified with > MCHANGES-378 with > the subsequents request MCHANGES-396 which are not yet solved. > > A new one arose in recent days as GitHub does not support username/password > authentication anymore and MCHANGES-400 seems to prevent connecting otherwise. > > So basically for now, being hosted at GitHub completely prevents using > maven-changes-plugin since it mandates connecting to an host that mandates an > authentication method that is not supported. And this even when you do *not* > want the GitHub report at all. > > So it would be nice to have a configuration parameter that allows to > completely skip attempts to connect to GitHub (and the same would probably be > useful also for other reports) -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.10#820010)
