The plugin doesn't work properly in its current state. There is a problem in the dependency chain that I haven't been able to fully track down the cause of.

Steps to reproduce:

- Install maven-changes-plugin 2.0-beta-3 into your local repository
- Check out the trunk of maven-changes-plugin
- Alter the reporting section of the pom to use maven-changes-plugin, version 2.0-beta-3.
- Run "mvn site" using Maven 2.0.7, 2.0.6, 2.0.5 or 2.0.4
  (those are the ones I tried)

Results:

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [INFO] Error getting reports from the plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-changes-plugin': Unable to find the mojo 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-changes-plugin:2.0-beta-3:changes-report' in the plugin 'org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-changes-plugin'
org/codehaus/plexus/util/xml/XmlStreamReader

Solution:

By adding this dependency to the pom I was able to get the site build again:
    <dependency>
      <groupId>org.codehaus.plexus</groupId>
      <artifactId>plexus-utils</artifactId>
      <version>1.4.5</version>
    </dependency>

However, that only works in 2.0.6 and 2.0.7, which has a shaded version of plexus-utils.

I haven't been able to find out which dependency is using org/codehaus/plexus/util/xml/XmlStreamReader, if that is the cause of the problem.
