Grégory Joseph commented on MRELEASE-728: ----------------------------------------- Granted, I don't know much about the intricacies of the plugin, but @joewalton, could you summarize how that change affects the commit message which is used ? The one used by SVN as per your previous comment isn't exactly correct either - or at least it's not what the reported was wishing for, i.e a message that clearly states this is a *new branch*. > The commit message for release:branch is wrong > ---------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-728 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-728 > Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: branch, Git > Affects Versions: 2.2.1 > Environment: git 1.7.5.4 > Reporter: Adrien Ragot > Assignee: Robert Scholte > Fix For: 2.3 > > > Using Git, when you do mvn release:branch -DbranchName=xxx, > the commit message for master is "[maven-release-plugin] prepare release xxx". > The right commit message should be "[maven-release-plugin] prepare branch > xxx", like for Svn. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
