when not pushing changes to remote git repo in 2.1, the release plugin fails on release:perform -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-605 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-605 Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: 2.1 Reporter: james strachan as it tries to clone the remote repo, which has not yet been pushed - so there's no tag in the remote repo yet. Ideally if pushChanges is false, it should use a value of {code} <release-altGitURL>scm:git:file://${baseDir}</release-altGitURL> {code} so that it clones from the current local git repo (which has everything inside it) rather than the remote repo which has yet to be pushed. BTW a great use case for not pushing is using a staging maven repo like Nexus; which may reject an attempt to promote a staged build, so you only want to push after a downstream stage works. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
