**[SCM-612](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-612?redirect=false)** and
commented
Problem as described on the [maven-users mailing
list](http://maven.40175.n5.nabble.com/How-to-release-a-single-module-in-a-Mercurial-repository-tp3406421p3406421.html).
Basically it is not possible to release a single module from a multi-module
project with mercurial as scm provider.
## When trying with current 1.5-SNAPSHOT:
```
Caused by: org.apache.maven.scm.ScmException: This provider doesn't support
tagging subsets of a directory
at
org.apache.maven.scm.provider.hg.command.tag.HgTagCommand.executeTagCommand(HgTagCommand.java:77)
at
org.apache.maven.scm.command.tag.AbstractTagCommand.executeCommand(AbstractTagCommand.java:81)
at
org.apache.maven.scm.command.AbstractCommand.execute(AbstractCommand.java:59)
... 29 more
```
## When trying with 1.4 release
It is more complicated, but also does not work. It boils down to having a
mandatory pom.xml in the repository root and scm url messed up during the
release:prepare and release:perform phases. See mentioned email for more
details.
