There is no way to specify a branch/tag/revision when performing a release
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-426
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-426
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: perform
Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-8
Environment: Maven2, CVSNT
Reporter: Eric
When using the release-plugin with CVS, there does not seem to be any way to
specify a version & versionType to base the release on.
The scm plugin allows to specify scmVersion, scmVersionType to pass this
information to the plugin, but when calling the release:perform goal, there is
no way to send this information to the scm plugin to checkout the files from
the appropriate branch/tag.
Accordingly, it seems that with CVS, the only way to build a release is from
the latest sources in the HEAD; not extremely practical.
