Thanks for replying.
I've seen that, but I interpreted it as what it says it is: a "prefix"
for an automatically Maven-generated message.
It seems to (correctly) generate something along the lines of:
[maven-release-plugin] prepare release maven-release-experiment-1.0.1
I was thinking about generating something like:
Release 2.5.7.3 (r12385)
Blah Blah
This is the release you were all waiting for, it solves all the
world's problems and then some.
Tests 3834/3/34
This kind of messages are very useful to subscribers of the SVN commit
list (they are to our bunch of developers, anyway). I guess I could
simulate that using scmCommentPrefix, though I don't know how to get rid
of "prepare release <tag>". I probably can live with that ...
Now that I am thinking about it, what would it be really cool was be to
be able to specify something like:
<configuration>
...
<scmCommentTemplate>path_to_template</scmCommentTemplate>
</configuration>
or similar, where template could use substitutions for ${maven.version},
etc.
If you think it's useful, I volunteer to implement it.
Cheers,
Ovidiu
