Mark Struberg commented on MRELEASE-457:
----------------------------------------
txs Jesse, but then you'd most probably need to pimp the maven-scm-api and hack
something into the hg provider. Because usually the scm-provider only gets the
checkout URL. But in this case you would additionally need the path to the
child module. This information is currently not available.

> Some SCMs like GIT, Mercurial, Bazaar, BitKeeper, Darcs, and Monotone doesn't
> support sparse checkouts (checkout of a single subdirectory).
> So while doing a mvn release:perform in a sub-module, we will always get the
> _whole_ project checked out into target/checkout!
> For doing the clean build from this checkout, we have to implement a
> functionality to find the right submodule first.
