Release plugin needs a way to return the SCM urls to previously defined version 
after release (based on properties)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MRELEASE-196
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-196
             Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
          Issue Type: Improvement
         Environment: Any pom where SCM information is based on properties
            Reporter: Mykel Alvis


My SCM urls are based on a well-defined pattern utilizing 1 or 2 properties and 
the artifactId
When the release plugin runs, it overrides these properties with the expanded 
SCM information, as expected.

However, when releasing a parent pom, this isn't an optimal situation.  (My) 
parent poms need to be released by altering the property sets, not changing the 
SCM urls.

For example, 
        <scm>
                <connection>scm:svn:${sird.scm.url.ro}</connection>
                
<developerConnection>scm:svn:${sird.scm.url.dev}</developerConnection>
                <url>${sird.scm.url.view}</url>
        </scm>

is based on 
                <!-- This is the developer url for this project, made from the 
scm host, the namespace, and the artifact id -->
                
<sird.scm.url.dev>http://${sird.scm.host}/svnrepos/${sird.object.namespace}/${artifactId}/trunk</sird.scm.url.dev>
                <!-- This is the readonly url for this project, made from the 
scm host, the namespace, and the artifact id -->
                
<sird.scm.url.ro>http://${sird.scm.host}/svnrepos/${sird.object.namespace}/${artifactId}/trunk</sird.scm.url.ro>
                <!-- This is the view (eg fisheye) url for this project, made 
from the scm host, the namespace, and the artifact id -->
                
<sird.scm.url.view>http://${sird.scm.host}/svnrepos/${sird.object.namespace}/${artifactId}/trunk</sird.scm.url.view>

What I'd like is to be able to change the sird.scm.url.dev (for instance) to 
some OTHER value, such as substituting a different url like
                <!-- This is the developer url for this project, made from the 
scm host, the namespace, and the artifact id -->
                
<sird.scm.url.dev>http://${sird.scm.host}/svnrepos/${sird.object.namespace}/${artifactId}/trunk</sird.scm.url.dev>
                <!-- This is the developer url for this project, made from the 
scm host, the namespace, and the artifact id -->
                
<sird.scm.url.released>http://${sird.scm.host}/svnrepos/${sird.object.namespace}/${artifactId}/tags/${releaseTag}</sird.scm.url.dev>
               <releaseTag>blah</releaseTag>

 with some property called releaseTag set by the release plugin into my 
property sets
and then having the release plugin just change the scm url to 

        <scm>
           ...
                
<developerConnection>scm:svn:${sird.scm.url.released}</developerConnection>
          ...
        </scm>

I know at least a couple of other places that manage a large number of 
artifacts like to do things like this.
