commented
I am unable to use the plugin buildnumber-maven-plugin to get the revision
number with Git and SVN. After some investigations, I realized that the plugin
used the Maven-SCM-API and their providers.
The command issued by the plugin is
```
/bin/sh -c cd /tmp/temp/mytestingrepo && git rev-parse --verify --short=7
HEAD
```
I run this command directly in a shell with the following error
```
fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
```
When I modify the command like the following one, it works perfectly
```
/bin/sh -c "cd /tmp/temp/mytestingrepo && git rev-parse --verify --short=7
HEAD"
```
It seems that the command is not executed correctly on my environment where
the
```
/bin/sh -c "cd /tmp/temp/mytestingrepo
```
is executed and afterwards the command
```
git rev-parse --verify --short=7 HEAD
```
is done in the current directory. In the case of SVN 1.7 and Git, the .svn
or .git are not located in subdirectories where the second command is executed.
