Mark Struberg closed SCM-571. ----------------------------- Resolution: Not A Bug Hi! The original issue has already been fixed in the maven-release-manager/maven-release-plugin. Please see MRELEASE-501. You can activate this feature by using $> mvn release:perform -DlocalCheckout=true The reason why we don't call a git-checkout but git-clone instead is because we a) need to test if the build is reproducible and b) git-checkout always works on the repo itself, but we need to get our sources into target/checkout. @Gunnar Gustavsson if your problem is still valid with the latest scm-provider-gitexe, then please file a separate issue - txs! > use checkout, not clone under release:perform > --------------------------------------------- > > Key: SCM-571 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-571 > Project: Maven SCM > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: maven-scm-provider-git > Affects Versions: 1.4 > Reporter: John J. Franey > Assignee: Mark Struberg > > In the log of a release:perform, I noticed that the git clone command is > being run. This will be a real killer for large repositories on the other > side of a slow network or disk drive. It can also eat up disk space. A > checkout would be preferred. Perhaps, the following would be better: > mkdir -p target/checkout; cd target/checkout; GIT_DIR=../../.git git checkout > *; cd ../.. > or, > git checkout <new tag> #do perform in the original workspace > Regards. -- 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
