Joerg Schaible commented on MRELEASE-558: ----------------------------------------- bq. The only case it could happen is when someone releases from a branch and from the trunk. Which happpens e.g. for the time being always with Apache commons dbcp: 1.4.x is Java 6 compatible, 1.3.x is for Java 5/1.4. > release:stage should merge metadata from repository. > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-558 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-558 > Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: stage > Affects Versions: 2.0 > Reporter: Antonio Petrelli > > Currently the release:stage goal does its job well, except when creating > metadata. > The metadata contains only the version of the released artifacts. I think > that it should: > * download the original metadata; > * merge the metadata with the new one; > * upload it in the staging repository. > This way, moving from stage repository to the release repository is a matter > of a simple copy. This is true especially at Apache. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
