Richard Eckart de Castilho updated UIMA-6470: --------------------------------------------- Description: The auto-staging mechanism for release candidates checks out the staging repository for release candidates even when there is no release build going on. This is a bit annoying because it requires that people that want to build auto-staging-enabled projects need to have SVN installed. This happens during SNAPSHOT CI builds as well - pretty annoying. I have to declare {{-Ddisable-rc-auto-staging}} in the {{Jenkinsfile}}s to get around this. Enabling the auto-staging profile by adding it to the Maven Release Plugin {{releaseProfiles}} would work. But then projects that do not use it have to override the {{releaseProfiles}} setting to remove it again or if we do not make it the default, then projects that use it have to override {{releaseProfiles}} to add it. Adding a {{-Dxxx}} to the {{arguments}} setting does not seem to be a great idea because it is more common that a developer would like to pass additional arguments than a developer wanting to pass additional release profiles. And developer-set arguments would not be accepted anymore if we hard-set the arguments in the release plugin - been there, done that, was not good. was: The auto-staging mechanism for release candidates checks out the staging repository for release candidates even when there is no release build going on.
