Marcin Kuthan commented on MRELEASE-335: ---------------------------------------- To avoid commits into tag, you can use the following command: mvn release:branch -DbranchName=1.0.x -DupdateBranchVersions=true -DupdateWorkingCopyVersions=false -DsuppressCommitBeforeBranch=true -DremoteTagging=false For me it should be a default behavior for release:branch. In my case the current development is made in trunk, released versions are tagged. If I need to fix released version, I create "patch" branch from the corresponding tag. E.g brach 1.0.x from tag 1.0. Make a fix and release 1.0.x branch as 1.0.1 (and the tag 1.0.1 is created as a result). So, branch is always created from a tag not from a trunk. And according to the SVN book, created tag must not be changed. > release:branch commits changes to tags/ directory > ------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-335 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-335 > Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: scm > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-7 > Reporter: Alex B > > It should be possible to create a branch from a tag using the release plugin > without comitting changes to the tags/ directory in subversion. > If this cannot be automated, then perhaps it should be possible to set the > versions and scm urls etc after making the copy from the tag to the branch > manually.... -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
