**[The Alchemist](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=the_alchemist)** commented Thank you, Olivier, but I feel like using the `buildnumber-maven-plugin` to get the SVN rev or Git changeset is just a workaround around the fact that I can't get it from `scm` plugin. I feel this is ironic, IMHO, because I can branch using the `scm` plugin, but I can't get the revision. Also `buildnumber:create` seems to be [only supported for Subversion](http://mojo.codehaus.org/buildnumber-maven-plugin/create-mojo.html), as compared to the plethora of SCMs that the Maven SCM plugin supports, most of which already have some kind `getInfo()` method. I'm not complaining: I'm offering to write a patch, if folks think this is worthwhile. Thanks! -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
