an issue has been found in Apache Parent POM 22, regarding scm-publish to Git: see MPOM-236 [1] it does not affect Maven project itself, since we're publishing our site html to svn instead of Git, but many Apache projects with small sites publish to Git Then we'll need to release version 23 soon
Is there any chance that a solution for your clean idea is added in this release?
