Chris Graham commented on MPIR-234:
-----------------------------------
"it's a general contract that should be enforcer for every supported scm
(http://maven.apache.org/scm/scms-overview.html ): scm url should support going
from a parent to a child Maven module by adding the path to the url"
One that made perfect sense in the CVS/SVN days, and these core concepts have
been etched in stone in the Maven & SCM thinking. However, this is not always
possible with all SCM's.
The base assumption above, does not always hold true for Accurev, ClearCase,
RTC, and depending on how you set it up, possibly even Git.
Git can be nested, with a root pom (and <module>blah</module> statements), or
flattened (and <module>../blah</module> statements). If flattened, the
assumption above does not told true.
> SCM-link in site of multimodule projects should not append module name by
> default (at least for git)

> Key: MPIR-234
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPIR-234
> Project: Maven Project Info Reports Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: scm
> Affects Versions: 2.4
> Reporter: Mirko Friedenhagen
>
> I have setup a simple multi module project (see
> https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample/tree/multi-site-complex)
> which uses git on github as {{scm}}. While rendering the site, MPIR will by
> default add the name of the module to the SCM-URLs in source-repository.html.
> So instead of https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample/ I see
> https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample/core/,
> g...@github.com:mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample.git/core and
> git://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample.git/core in the report for
> the core module. All these URLs are invalid. For SVN this could be assumed to
> be the right behaviour, for git and probably other SCMs this is not true. As
> a workaround I have to reconfigure the scm section (see
> https://github.com/mfriedenhagen/multi-module-sample/blob/multi-site-complex/core/pom.xml)
> in the modules like this:
> {code:xml}
> <scm>
> <connection>${project.parent.scm.connection}</connection>
>
> <developerConnection>${project.parent.scm.developerConnection}</developerConnection>
> <url>${project.parent.scm.url}</url>
> </scm>
> {code}
