Robert Scholte created SCM-783: ---------------------------------- Summary: Support existence check for tags and branches Key: SCM-783 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-783 Project: Maven SCM Issue Type: New Feature Components: maven-scm-api Reporter: Robert Scholte
The {{prepare}} goal of the maven-release-plugin does the following scm tasks: # commit the adjusted pom.xml with final versions and new (developer)connection # tag # commit the adjusted pom.xml for the next development cycle. If step 2 fails because the tag already exists, the pom is in a wrong status at the trunk. A next attempt to do the {{prepare}} will fail. To prevent this simple mistake is by checking the existence of the tag *before* step 1. The same should be done for branches. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.6#6162)
