tagBase - either check or create if missing
-------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-626
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-626
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: prepare
Affects Versions: 2.1
Environment: any - linux
Reporter: Neil Tingley
Anything to prevent this scenario:-
---------- snip -------------------
Provider message:
The svn tag command failed.
Command output:
svn: Path 'tags' not present
------------------------------------
This happens quite often if you forget (in SVN for example) to create a 'tags'
directory. Maven release:perform releases the jar but the build then fails if
the tag can't be created leaving a mess. I think this could be improved.
Suggested improvements
- in release:prepare check that the tagBase exists in SCM and fail before
anything gets underway
- release:perform can make the missing tags base (perhaps this is too clever)
