Hi, i also would really like a simple 'scm:info' (similar to "svn info")
setting
scm.revision
scm.url
variables.
I noticed the 'scm:update' is already providing the first ("Storing revision
in 'scm.revision' project property."), but i cant always update when building.
The 'scm.url' is also useful because it identifies disambiguously (along
with the global revision number in 'scm.revision') the working copy from which
the EAR was built.
ps: i cant use the buildnumber-plugin because i've already configured it to
generate another unique number based on the date.

> Key: SCM-335
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-335
> Project: Maven SCM (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: maven-plugin
> Environment: subversion
> Reporter: nicolas de loof
> Priority: Minor
>
> I'd like to add in my artifacts manifest the SVN revision number.
> The scm plugin seems to be the best place to extract such info, but doesn't
> seem to yet have support for this.
> I'd like to see some scm:revision goal in the plugin, to set a property I can
> use later.
> I've found this plugin :
> http://commons.ucalgary.ca/projects/maven-buildnumber-plugin/howto.html
> but it has the issue of parsing the text-based svn output. As a french user,
> svn is localized and doesn't return the expected "Revision" property (but
> R*é*vision).
> Maybe I looking in the wrong place as revision number concept is not portable
> to CVS, for example, and maybe neither to other SCM tools.
