ASF GitHub Bot commented on SCM-916: ------------------------------------ jira-importer opened a new issue, #1135: URL: https://github.com/apache/maven-scm/issues/1135 **[Carlo Marchiori](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=marchiori)** opened **[SCM-916](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-916?redirect=false)** and commented Suppose you have the following situation my-proj/pom.xml my-proj-child1/pom.xml my-proj-child2/pom.xml with child my-proj-child1, my-proj-child2 maven modules of root project my-proj. Farther suppose using the maven-release-plugin to build a multi-project release starting from my-proj project. The release plugin modifies poms and then tries to check them in. The working directory becomes my-proj and the file collection is [my-proj/pom.xml, my-proj-child1/pom.xml, my-proj-child2/pom.xml] But while building the command line and removing the working directory from file paths, the class GitCommandLineUtils in the method addTarget transforms the file list in [pom.xml, -child1/pom.xml, -child2/pom.xml] which is wrong. The code should check if the prefix is a filesystem parent directory, not just a string prefix. The problem gives rise to the following error Caused by: org.apache.maven.shared.release.scm.ReleaseScmCommandException: Unable to commit files Provider message: The git-add command failed. Command output: fatal: pathspec '-child1\pom.xml' did not match any files --- **Affects:** 1.9.4 > Relative paths are not correctly inferred while creating the command line > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SCM-916 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-916 > Project: Maven SCM (Moved to GitHub Issues) > Issue Type: Bug > Components: maven-scm-provider-gitexe > Affects Versions: 1.9.4 > Reporter: Carlo Marchiori > Priority: Major > > Suppose you have the following situation > my-proj/pom.xml > my-proj-child1/pom.xml > my-proj-child2/pom.xml > with child my-proj-child1, my-proj-child2 maven modules of root project > my-proj. > > Farther suppose using the maven-release-plugin to build a multi-project > release starting from my-proj project.
