Hi,
I am trying the release plugin on a project with sub-modules within Eclipse. The project is named 'core' and the sub-module is 'plugin-setproperties'. I want to release only one sub-module, not the whole project. I go into the sub-module project and execute release:prepare. This works, sub-module is tagged in cvs and release.properties is created. Then I execute release:perform which does not work: - Cvs checks out the whole project, not only the tagged sub-project. CVS checkout normally works in a way that the directories that do not belong to the tag are deleted at the end. This does not happen - The deploy ends with an error saying a pom is missing. Maybe there is missing a 'change directory' to go into the sub-module directory?
