-------------------------------------

             Summary: Source release assembly can't do tar.gz only
                 Key: MPOM-47
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPOM-47
             Project: Maven POMs
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: asf
            Reporter: Christopher Tubbs
             Fix For: ASF-14


The source-release-assembly execution of the maven-assembly-plugin doesn't 
offer any way to specify to build a tarball (tar.gz) only. By default, it 
builds a zip file.

One can override the plugin execution to force it to build both a zip and a 
tarball, by setting sourceReleaseAssemblyDescriptor to "source-release-zip-tar".

However, there's no way to get it to build only the tarball, unless you do 
convoluted things like in [this 
example|http://search.maven.org/remotecontent?filepath=org/apache/accumulo/accumulo-project/1.5.0/accumulo-project-1.5.0.pom],
 or if you override the apache-release profile entirely.
