Hi all, I have been looking into using Maven server settings for handling SVN credentials when checking in Commons sites. This is supported by the recent 1.0 release of the maven-scm-publish-plugin. I would like to upgrade commons-parent to use this version of the plugin. This version of the plugin requires Maven 3.x, but in light of the Maven 2 EOL I think this should be okay. From my initial research it looks as though we can define a server (e.g. "site.svn") in commons-parent and the structure of the scm-publish plugin should, in order:
- use any username/password specified via -D - use any credentials from the user's settings.xml for the defined server ID - try to commit without credentials, which will use .subversion/auth if available I will prepare the changes; please shout with any concerns! Matt
