Robert Scholte commented on MRELEASE-875: ----------------------------------------- Version 2.5 was a Git special release, which should have fixed this issue (SCM-709). A couple of users confirmed that this fixed their issues, so I'm surprised you hit it again. To narrow the issue: how about the combinations m-release-p-2.4.2 + Git 1.9.0 and m-release-p-2.5 + Git 1.7? When running with debug logging (add {{\-X}} or {{\--debug}} to your commandline), you'll see the Git commandlines being executed. What do you see and what should it be? > release:prepare does not commit pom.xml if not in the git root > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-875 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-875 > Project: Maven Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: prepare > Affects Versions: 2.5 > Environment: git 1.9.0 > Reporter: john ten Den > > When the project pom.xml is not in the Git project root (f.e. in the "src" > directory) the pom.xml not committed and pushed (before tagging) > Commit of the pom.xml during release:prepare works fine if it is in the / > (root) of the git repository > Using the pom.xml in a subdirectory worked well with version 2.4.2 using git > 1.7. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.6#6162)
