> RC auto staging checks out SVN even on non-release builds
> ---------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: UIMA-6470
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UIMA-6470
> Project: UIMA
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Build, Packaging and Test
> Affects Versions: parent-pom-15
> Reporter: Richard Eckart de Castilho
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: parent-pom-16
>
>
> The auto-staging mechanism for release candidates checks out the staging
> repository for release candidates even when there is no release build going
> on. This is a bit annoying because it requires that people that want to build
> auto-staging-enabled projects need to have SVN installed.
> This happens during SNAPSHOT CI builds as well - pretty annoying. I have to
> declare {{-Ddisable-rc-auto-staging}} in the {{Jenkinsfile}}s to get around
> this.
> Enabling the auto-staging profile by adding it to the Maven Release Plugin
> {{releaseProfiles}} would work. But then projects that do not use it have to
> override the {{releaseProfiles}} setting to remove it again or if we do not
> make it the default, then projects that use it have to override
> {{releaseProfiles}} to add it.
> Adding a {{-Dxxx}} to the {{arguments}} setting does not seem to be a great
> idea because it is more common that a developer would like to pass additional
> arguments than a developer wanting to pass additional release profiles. And
> developer-set arguments would not be accepted anymore if we hard-set the
> arguments in the release plugin - been there, done that, was not good.
