Need a way to format the revision number gathered from SCM.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Key: MBUILDNUM-74
URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MBUILDNUM-74
Project: Mojo Build Number Maven Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: buildnumber-maven-plugin-1.0
Reporter: Josh Berry
The full SHA has received from GIT is overkill for build identification
purposes. I tried toying with the <format> and <items> keys, though this
looks like it actually disables SCM integration. (Something that is not
documented well at all.) Further, because this is using a MessageFormat and
not the more flexible Formatter syntax, I'm not sure this could have worked
anyway.
I think the only steps necessary to clean this up a lot, is to make another
special case in <items> for "scmVersion" that would be the latest version
reported by the SCM provider. Then, make it so that instead of MessageFormat,
you use a string readable by java.util.Formatter.
I can submit a patch that does this, if you'd be open for including this change.
