Hi all,
I'm trying to use the scm plugin to bootstrap a project from a SVN repository. Using: mvn scm:bootstrap -DconnectionUrl="scm:svn:$SCM_PATH" -DscmVersion="$SCM_REVISION" -DscmVersionType="$SCM_REVISION_TYPE" -Dusername="$SCM_USER" -Dpassword="$SCM_PWD" -Dgoals="install" All works well However, the end user of this script would like SVN to prompt for username, password, and certificate trusting... Per the svn scm provider plugin, I created a config file with <useNonInteractive>false</>, which works: maven calls SVN without the -non-interactive option. However, it seems that maven doesn't pipe the svn command's inputs and outputs: On windows (xp sp2), it just hangs (no cpu), as if it were waiting for input, but there is no message On Solaris (5.6, sh), I do get a request for a password, based on the current user (although this isn't the user I want to use, this seems to be a logical svn behaviour), but doesn't react to input. Has anyone had any success using the interactive mode for svn with the scm plugin? Also, are there any known plans on making the interactive mode available via a -D switch? [Based on my reading of maven-scm-provider-svn-commons-1.1-sources & maven-scm-provider-svnexe-1.1-sources, there is nothing in that direction so far] My current workaround is to prompt for username & password in the script, and pass these to maven, using the non-interactive default mode, although this does not cater for certificate problems.
