-----Original Message----- From: Laird Nelson [mailto:ljnel...@gmail.com] Sent: 26 September 2011 20:58 To: Maven Users List Subject: Question about SCM and maven-release-plugin What should the scm element contain so that the maven-release-plugin will work properly? I have seen people's projects have scm stanzas like this: <scm> <connection>scm:svn:https://whatever.com/whatever/trunk</connection> <developerConnection>scm:svn:https://whatever.com/whatever/trunk </developerConnection> </scm> ...and I've seen the same without the trunk: <scm> <connection>scm:svn:https://whatever.com/whatever</connection> <developerConnection>scm:svn:https://whatever.com/whatever </developerConnection> </scm> If one is using Subversion, should one append the branch/trunk name to the scm element, or should one only specify the repository root?
