Karl Pietrzak commented on SCM-711:
-----------------------------------
Thank you, Olivier, but I feel like using the {{buildnumber-maven-plugin}} to
get the SVN rev or Git changeset is just a workaround around the fact that I
can't get it from {{scm}} plugin. I feel this is ironic, IMHO, because I can
branch using the {{scm}} plugin, but I can't get the revision.
Also {{buildnumber:create}} seems to be [only supported for
Subversion|http://mojo.codehaus.org/buildnumber-maven-plugin/create-mojo.html],
as compared to the plethora of SCMs that the Maven SCM plugin supports, most of
which already have some kind {{getInfo()}} method.
I'm not complaining: I'm offering to write a patch, if folks think this is
worthwhile.
Thanks!
