Per Rovegård commented on MRELEASE-501:
---------------------------------------
I want to do a local checkout, but git clone fails since ${basedir} isn't the
root of my git repository. The git root is one level up, so ${basedir}/..
How do I tell the plugin where my git root is?
> create the possibility for performing a local checkout instead a clean
> checkout from the upstream repository for DSCMs

> Key: MRELEASE-501

> Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: perform
> Affects Versions: 2.0
> Reporter: Mark Struberg

> Fix For: 2.0

> For distributed SCMs like GIT, JGit, hg, etc we don't need to do a e.g.
> git-clone git://upstreamserver.com/location but should only do a
> localCheckout. This would be possible by simply cloning from
> file://${basedir} in the release:perform phase if -DlocalCheckout=true is
> used.
> This option will speed up the builds of large projects heavily since no
> network transfer is needed. Usually DSCMs also have the feature to only
> create hardlinks instead of copying all files in the repo. I know this works
> really well for GIT [1] but have to check this feature with JGit. In any case
> omitting the network transfer would be a huge blast on it's own.
