----------------------------------
Summary: Allow continuous delivery friendly versions
Key: MNG-5576
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-5576
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 3.1.1
Reporter: Jason van Zyl
Currently warnings will be emitted when there are expressions in versions, a
few exceptions should be deemed valid to make continuous delivery easier. The
use case is to allow easy versioning of an entire multi-module build that can
take a version from an external source like SCM. These are the types of
exceptions that will be allowed:
1.0.0.${changelist}
1.0.0.${revision}
1.0.0.${sha1}
When a whole build is versioned like this we can avoid churning the POMs in the
SCM which makes it a lot easier to see the actual changes in the project. Not a
complete solution for continuous delivery but is a step in the right direction
and doesn't interfere with currently behavior as it is currently allowed, just
warned against.
