[scm:tag] Add Ability to Append Timestamp to Tag Name
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: MPSCM-79
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPSCM-79
Project: maven-scm-plugin
Type: New Feature
Reporter: Sharmarke Aden
Attachments: timestamp.patch
I have created a patch that, based on configuration properties, appends today's
date/time to the tag name that I would like to share and see part of scm
plug-in's future releases. This enhancement adds three new configuration
properties.
1) A Boolean property called "addTimestamp" which indicates whether the plug-in
should append timestamp to the tag name.
2) A string property called "timestampFormat" which contains date pattern akin
to java.text.SimpleDateFormat class. If "timestampFormat" is not set and
"addTimestamp" property is set to true the default date pattern of
"yyyyMMddHHmmss" will be used.
3) A string property called "timestampPrefix" which will be used to separate
the tag name and the timestamp. The default timestampPrefix value is "-"
Here is what the plug-in definition should look like:
<plugins>
....
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-scm-plugin</artifactId>
<version>1.0-beta-3</version>
<executions>
<execution>
<phase>deploy</phase>
<goals>
<goal>tag</goal>
</goals>
</execution>
</executions>
<configuration>
<tagBase>http://my/svn/project/tags</tagBase>
<tag>my-tag-name</tag>
<addTimestamp>true</addTimestamp>
<timestampFormat>yyyyMMddHHmmss</timestampFormat>
<timestampPrefix>-tag-</timestampPrefix>
</configuration>
</plugin>
...
</plugins>
Note that both timestampFormat and timestampPrefix have default values and
therefore are optional.
