Hi, The <scm> section of a pom in CVS for a pom archetype project looks like this prior to executing release:prepare :
<scm> <connection>${base.cvs.url}:commons-maven/uber-pom</connection> <developerConnection>${base.cvs.url}:commons-maven/uber-pom</developerConnection> <url>${base.viewcvs.url}/commons-maven/uber-pom</url> </scm> Then after executing release:prepare, the pom in CVS looks like this (new <tag> tag is only difference): <scm> <connection>${base.cvs.url}:commons-maven/uber-pom</connection> <developerConnection>${base.cvs.url}:commons-maven/uber-pom</developerConnection> <url>${base.viewcvs.url}/commons-maven/uber-pom</url> <tag>R-1_7</tag> </scm> Then after executing release:perform, the pom looks like this in CVS: <scm> <connection>scm:cvs:pserver:behrcvs.masco-coatings.com:/usr/cvsroot:commons-maven/uber-pom</connection> <developerConnection>scm:cvs:pserver:behrcvs.masco-coatings.com:/usr/cvsroot:commons-maven/uber-pom</developerConnection> <url> http://behrcvs.masco-coatings.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/commons-maven/uber-pom </url> </scm> Notice that the properties that were there for the base URLs for CVS and ViewCVS have been replaced with literal values. Is this a bug or is this functioning as designed? No other properties in the POM are being treated this way.
