Hi all, There is a useful feature in the maven-release-manager module regarding SCM transformation, especially when performing a release. The AbstractRewritePomsPhase<http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/release/tags/maven-release-2.3.2/maven-release-manager/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/shared/release/phase/AbstractRewritePomsPhase.java> class defines a transformScm method, that is able to perform various transformations for the <scm> tag, for a number of providers.
Could that feature be extracted into a shared component (or a specific mojo at least)? Other plugins like the Maven SCM Plugin or the Versions Maven Plugin could for instance possibly use it, and having an “official” way to deal with this <scm> tag transformations would be nice. For instance, the scm:tag or scm:branch mojos doesn’t change the <scm> URL as they should. Currently, the only way to produce a releasable pom is to use the release-prepare mojo, as the update-versions one skips the transformScm operation (maybe being able to use it like for the release phase, with a parameter, would be good too). I guess you guys here may have other suggestions, I just think that having a clean way to deal with <scm> tag changes can ease a bunch of use cases.
