Alexey Pakseykin commented on MRELEASE-381:
-------------------------------------------
The description lists the following example:
ssh developer absolute:
git clone g...@github.com/olamy/scm-git-test-one-module.git
This is incorrect - there is no colon `:` between hostname and path for SSH
tools to consider this valid. Try to clone a Git repo with command like this:
git clone username@hostname/absolute/path/to/known/repo.git
And this will fail until you put a colon `:` between hostname and path. SSH
differentiates between absolute and relative (to user's home) path by looking
at `/`
So, what's it's all about?
The problem is that erasing this colon `:` by Maven Release plugin is a problem
in the latest (2.5.1) version:

> The problem is that git supports 2 different URL schemes. For the normal RFC
> 2396 standard and ssh style. So in theory all these styles should work:
> normal anonymous absolute:
> {code}git clone git://github.com/olamy/scm-git-test-one-module.git{code}
> normal anonymous relative:
> {code}git clone git://github.com:olamy/scm-git-test-one-module.git{code}
> normal developer absolute:
> {code}git clone ssh://g...@github.com/olamy/scm-git-test-one-module.git{code}
> normal developer relative:
> {code}git clone ssh://g...@github.com/~git/olamy/scm-git-test-one-module{code}
> ssh developer absolute:
> {code}git clone g...@github.com/olamy/scm-git-test-one-module.git{code}
> ssh developer relative:
> {code}git clone g...@github.com:olamy/scm-git-test-one-module{code}
> In reality the ssh:// URL is not always supported. (For example github does
> not). In fact they suggest to use
> normal anonymous absolute:
> {code}git://github.com/olamy/scm-git-test-one-module.git{code}
> ssh developer relative:
> {code}g...@github.com:olamy/scm-git-test-one-module.git{code}
> For the initial checkout the developer will use the command line and set
> "g...@github.com:olamy/scm-git-test-one-module.git" as the remote address. So
> subsequent commits and tags (from the plugin) can work just fine as the URL
> does not need to be specified anymore. But when the release plugin checks out
> the code it will fail if the proper developer url
> "ssh://g...@github.com/~git/olamy/scm-git-test-one-module" (normal developer
> relative) is set. (As the maven pom seems to expect that format).
> There are 3 ways to fix or work around this:
> 1) Use the normal anonymous URLs for both connections (developer and
> anonymous) inside the pom. This will confused developers though as the
> generated site tells the new developers to use the anonymous URL to checkout
> the code. They will not be able to push if they do.
> 2) Have the scm/release plugin ignore the developer URL and use the anonymous
> URL for the checkout. Again this will be confusing on the generated site as
> the normal developer rel/abs URLs might not be supported.
> 3) Somehow store the URL in the format
> "g...@github.com:olamy/scm-git-test-one-module" in the pom. The problem is
> that the POM expects the normal (RFC 2396) format AFAIU.
