Baptiste Mathus commented on MRELEASE-494:
------------------------------------------
For the record, now that SCM-741 is fixed, that issue actually only needs the
maven-release-plugin to use the to be released maven-scm-1.10 version.
> Should fail during release:prepare if scm:url doesn't match working copy
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MRELEASE-494
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-494
> Project: Maven Release Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: prepare
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-9
> Environment: Subversion SCM; working in a branch
> Reporter: David M. Lee
>
> The release plugin should check scm:url against the output of {{svn info}}.
> If they don't match, it should fail with an error.
> We had a situation where the pom file in a branch was screwed up during a
> merge, such that scm:url was incorrect. In our case, it pointed to the trunk
> instead of the branch.
> This caused release:prepare to silently do the wrong thing. It would still
> do the normal edit/commit in the working copy of the branch, but then it
> would do the copy using the scm:url. In our case, this meant that the tag
> was copied from the trunk instead of the branch.
> In fact, release:perform also completed successfully; our only indication
> that there was a problem was the version number of the released artifacts.
> We cannot set remotetagging=false due to the Subversion bug trying to copy
> with svn > 1.5.
