OK, the one you want is maven-changelog-plugin. Please see the
documentation and pictures at this page:
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-changelog-plugin/usage.html
The changelog:changelog goal shows the commit messages. If all your
releases are tagged then you should configure the plugin like this:

Hi,
Yes.. what I am looking for is a list of all the comments entered (at
checkin time) into my scm (SVN, in my case) broken down by release.
I haven't really tried either of these solutions yet, but looking at the
documentation of these 2 plugins, I think I am looking for something
inbetween:
maven-changelog-plugin
maven-changes-plugin
The first produces a list of file that have changed (albeit by release) but,
atleast as per documentation, does not give me the svn log output. That is,
it does not show me the user comments entered at commit time.
The second goes against JIRA or a manually edited (or programatically
generated) changes.xml.
What I need is the svn log output (nicely formatted, ofcourse ;)) from
release 1.n to 1.m
I would use this for my release notes link and it would be a great feature
if I could email this list to a distribution list.
I'd love to enhance the existing plugin to do this but the article here
scared me !

But how do you get issues grouped by released version?
Maven-changes-plugin provides a great list of issues for the projects,
filtered by different criteria.
So it could provide all open issues for instance.
Maybe I'm missing something, but this isn't what you want for release
notes.
ReleaseNotes should contain all the resolved issues, grouped by released
version, ordered from most recent to least recent. It might also contain
a list of open issues.
The maven-changes-plugin change:jira-report looks like it is retrieving
enough information to do this, but I can't see how to configure it to
produce release notes. Can anyone tell me?
Alternatively, is there a plugin that does produce release notes (from
JIRA).

That'd be the maven-changes-plugin then:

Thanks Dennis,
That was really helpful.
However, is there a report plugin that produces "release notes" as
against a change log.
Actually, I've seen the report such a plugin produces on the site of
one of the maven projects (maybe one of the plugins). I just can't
seem to find it now. The report has a bugs, enhancements, wishlist and
a features section, all broken out by release. This changelog plugin
doesn't seem to produce this kind of report.
Ofcourse, we are using the maven-release-plugin to produce the
releases.
Any suggestions what plugin produces that report?
Thanks,

Hello,
I'd like to generate release notes as a part of my mvn site command.
If I annotate the site.xml with the following:
<menu name="Maven 2.0">
<item name="Introduction" href="index.html"/>
<item name="Download" href="download.html"/>
<item name="Release Notes" href="release-notes.html" />
<item name="General Information" href="about.html"/>
<item name="For Maven 1.0 Users" href="maven1.html"/>
<item name="Road Map" href="roadmap.html" />
</menu>
It certainly creates the menu correctly.
However, where is the plugin that will actually create the
release-notes.html?
I tried project-info-reports:scm but that looks like a dead-end to
me as far as release note generation goes.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Pankaj
