Weird, many users reported the 2.5 had fixed their issues. What (version) are you actually using for: * maven * maven-release-plugin (triple-check you hadn't redefined maven-scm-* dependency somewhere) * svn ? Git ? Something else ?
On a unrelated subject : issuing a "mvn clean install deploy" command shows a tiny misunderstanding of how Maven works. You're asking maven to install twice (said differently "deploy" already includes the steps from "install").
