Kathryn, I think there is a conceptional misunderstanding here. Subversion is actually almost the ONLY SCM which has different URLs on different branches.
Usually the version gets set via the -DscmVersion parameter which transfers into the ScmVersion parameter in various functions of the maven-scm-api! Your attempt with first determining/setting the branch with native git commands would actually work with git, but I'd prefer to give wagon-scm the branch as parameter and use that inside the code. txs and LieGrue, strub --- Kathryn Huxtable <kath...@kathrynhuxtable.org> schrieb am Fr, 2.4.2010: > Von: Kathryn Huxtable <kath...@kathrynhuxtable.org> > Betreff: Re: Problem with wagon-scm and gitexe > An: "Maven Users List" <users@maven.apache.org> > Datum: Freitag, 2.
