-------------------------------------
Summary: Distinguish 'active development branch' in SCM report
from 'release tag'
Key: MPIR-254
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPIR-254
Project: Maven 2.x Project Info Reports Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: scm
Affects Versions: 2.5.1
Reporter: Benson Margulies
There's a certain amount of chronic minor confusion caused by the SCM report
for a released version. The release plugin puts the tag into both the user and
developer urls, and the report reports them. This has the unfortunate effect of
suggesting that the way to 'develop' is to check out the tag.
One might argue that this is, in fact, a release plugin issue; that it should
leave the source branch (typically the trunk) in the developer URL and only
mess with the other ones. Leaving that aside, it would be an improvement for
the SCM reporter to be capable of clearly distinguishing 'this is the release
tag' from 'here is where development is happening'. Since we can't add to the
POM scm element easily, it would seem to be a job for plugin config.
