Release:prepare using CVS fails cause of invalid characters in SCM Tag
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CONTINUUM-2305
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/CONTINUUM-2305
Project: Continuum
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Web interface
Affects Versions: 1.3.3
Environment: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.21
(Solaris 10, JBoss 4.2.2, MS SQL Server 2005, jTDS 1.2.2, maven 2.0.10)
Reporter: Manuel Passerini
Priority: Trivial
Continuum provides an SCM Tag like 'citest-super-0.0.9' in the GUI. During the
'scm-tag' release phase I get the following error:
[ERROR] org.apache.maven.shared.release.scm.ReleaseScmCommandException: Unable
to tag SCM
Provider message:
The cvs tag command failed.
Command output:
cvs [tag aborted]: tag `citest-super-0.0.9' must not contain the characters
`$,.:;@'
Based on the scm connection (scm:cvs...), it would be nice to have some sort of
validation, before the release:prepare begins.
(As we do inhouse: Replace the dots from the version with underscores. I don't
know the best practices, but this might be an idea.)
