Re: mvn release:prepare using git, fatal: pom.xml is outside repository
Hi again, I've now created a test case, at http://github.com/rickyclarkson/maven-git-testcase It's started to affect more projects, as I'm moving over to git a project at a time, and I'm resorting to manual releases at the moment. I've already made a mistake, though not a serious one, so I'm keen to get this resolved. You can reproduce the problem I have by doing (using Git Bash on Windows): git clone http://github.com/rickyclarkson/maven-git-testcase.git mvn --batch-mode release:prepare You might observe that the scm URL in there would not be a URL that one can push to (it's http, not ssh), but my experiments have shown that the failure happens even if the URL can be pushed to, so to keep reproduction of the problem simple, I used a read-only scm URL. I have tested this on Windows, with and without a space in the directory name (i.e., in C:\Documents and Settings, and in C:\deleteme). I have also tested this on Linux, and found that it succeeds (well, it gets as far as not being able to push), so I suppose I have a workaround - release on Linux, then checkout the tag on Windows to deploy artifacts. The git installation I have is via Git Bash (msysgit), and hasn't been configured other than user.name, user.email and core.autocrlf. git add on the same file manually succeeds, it is only from maven that it fails. The problem does not occur in a single-module project. Is there any more information I can give that might help?

Re: mvn release:prepare using git, fatal: pom.xml is outside repository
Hi Mark, Yes, ./ is a repository. It's a multi-module project, in one git repository. I just realised that the open source project it works fine on doesn't have child modules. I'll add one and try to do another release of that.

Re: mvn release:prepare using git, fatal: pom.xml is outside repository
Hi Mark, I haven't solved the problem in that project yet, but an open source project I just created works fine for the same thing, so I'm sure I'll get there on the closed-source project I was asking about.

Re: Specifying maven-assembly-plugin descriptors from separate profiles
I think I have an answer. Have the windows profile set the property windows, then in the installer profile, specify ${os-specific-descriptor} src/main/assembly/executable.xml. To reduce duplication, I'll need a no-installer profile which is activated whenever installer isn't, but for the moment each OS-specific profile will specify the descriptor name twice, which is still duplication, but more localised than before!

Specifying maven-assembly-plugin descriptors from separate profiles
Hi, I have one profile, windows, which configures the maven-assembly-plugin with the src/main/assembly/win32.xml assembly descriptor, and another profile, installer, which configures it with the src/main/assembly/executable.xml assembly descriptor. Unfortunately specifying -Pinstaller makes it so that the effective-pom only refers to the src/main/assembly/executable.xml descriptor. Is there a way of making it so that the descriptors get aggregated rather than replaced when specified from separate profiles, or is there a better way of going about this problem that I'm missing?

Activating a profile based on the deactivation of other profiles
Hi, Before my involvement in this project, we would make a branded version of our software by going into the pom and changing development-brand to ad-brand in a declaration, for a number of brands, then running mvn assembly:assembly again. This worked, but was so awkward that branded versions just didn't get built until somebody basically begged for them. I've moved the dependency stating development-brand to a profile named development-brand, and created a number of other profiles for each brand. If I use mvn assembly:assembly -Pad-brand,-development-brand I get an AD-branded version, which is nice, but now just mvn assembly:assembly does not work at all; the build completes but the application won't start because of a missing dependency. mvn help:active-profiles confirms that development-brand is not included by default. An activation of true for development-brand won't help, as we always have another, pre-existing profile, activated, windows, linux or osx. Naming the profile 'default' won't help either for the same reason. I tried, in the ad-brand profile, setting ad-brand and having development-brand !brand, but then found that development-brand was activated all the time, unless explicitly deactivated on the command-line, which at least makes the default case of no -P parameter work. It seems like the activations are all decided before the first activated profile's elements are used. So my question is; how can I make it so that development-brand is activated only if none of the other brands are? -- Ricky Clarkson Java and Scala Programmer, AD Holdings +44 1565 770804 Skype: ricky_clarkson Google Talk: ricky.clark...@gmail.com Google Wave: ricky.clark...@googlewave.com - To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
Signing a jar in the assembly phase
Hi, We would like to be able to sign our jar file for distribution, and have noticed that the jar plugin has a sign task. However, this task is part of the "package" phase of the lifecycle, at which point we don't have the right jar file - we want to do it when assembly:assembly is executed. In which direction should we be looking for solving this? Forking the jar task? Finding another plugin? Thanks, Ricky.

Inline Checkstyle Configuration
Hi, We have just added CheckStyle (and a few others) to our project root's pom.xml, and managed to configure findbugs, cobertura etc., within the pom.xml, but the plugin for CheckStyle doesn't appear to support such inline configuration. We read about configuring CheckStyle for multi-module projects on Maven's site, and the suggested solution was to create a separate build-tools project. This is ok, but right now it would only be for the one CheckStyle config XML file, which seems overkill. Is there another solution, or a good reason why the CheckStyle plugin doesn't support adding the configuration within pom.xml? Cheers, Ricky.
