David SPORN commented on SCM-695: --------------------------------- _This is a copy of my comment on the issue [MRELEASE-701|https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-701] _ Found the root cause : * *module :* maven-scm-provider-gitexe-1.9.2.jar * *package :* org.apache.maven.scm.provider.git.gitexe.command * *Class#function :* GitCommandLineUtils#addTarget( Commandline cl, List<File> files ), around line 57 In this function, file names are processed to remove a common prefix, that is the path of the working directory : {code:title=GitCommandLineUtils#addTarget( Commandline cl, List<File> files )|borderStyle=solid} public static void addTarget( Commandline cl, List<File> files ) { if ( files == null || files.isEmpty() ) { return; } final File workingDirectory = cl.getWorkingDirectory(); try { final String canonicalWorkingDirectory = workingDirectory.getCanonicalPath(); for ( File file : files ) { String relativeFile = file.getPath(); final String canonicalFile = file.getCanonicalPath(); if ( canonicalFile.startsWith( canonicalWorkingDirectory ) ) { // so we can omit the starting characters relativeFile = canonicalFile.substring( canonicalWorkingDirectory.length() ); if ( relativeFile.startsWith( File.separator ) ) { relativeFile = relativeFile.substring( File.separator.length() ); } } // no setFile() since this screws up the working directory! cl.createArg().setValue( relativeFile ); } } catch ( IOException ex ) { throw new IllegalArgumentException( "Could not get canonical paths for workingDirectory = " + workingDirectory + " or files=" + files, ex ); } } {code} This behaviour works well with a project organisation that follows maven convention, but in the case of a flat organisation and projects folder names being the name of the parent project + prefix, we get the observed result. > Mvn release plugin problems with too many - in name > --------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SCM-695 > URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/SCM-695 > Project: Maven SCM > Issue Type: Bug > Components: maven-scm-provider-git > Affects Versions: 1.7 > Environment: Apache Maven 3.0.3 (r1075438; 2011-02-28 18:31:09+0100) > Maven home: /home/devent/apps/apache-maven-3.0.3 > Java version: 1.7.0_b147-icedtea, vendor: Oracle Corporation > Java home: /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.7.0-openjdk-1.7.0.1/jre > Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8 > OS name: "linux", version: "3.1.9-1.fc16.i686", arch: "i386", family: "unix" > Reporter: Erwin Mueller > Priority: Blocker > Attachments: mvn-release-prepare.log > > > Have maven problems with modules containing too many "-"? > I have projects that are named: > globalpom-groovy/ > globalpom-groovy/globalpom-groovy/pom.xml < parent pom > globalpom-groovy/globalpom-groovy-izpack/pom.xml > globalpom-groovy/globalpom-groovy-izpack-snglejar/pom.xml > globalpom-groovy/globalpom-groovy-testutils/pom.xml > But if I do mvn release:prepare inside of globalpom-groovy/globalpom-groovy/, > then I get the error: > [INFO] Executing: /bin/sh -c cd > /mnt/read/projects/com.anrisoftware/globalpom/globalpom-groovy/globalpom- > groovy && git add -- pom.xml -izpack/pom.xml -izpack-singlejar/pom.xml - > testutils/pom.xml > [INFO] Working directory: > /mnt/read/projects/com.anrisoftware/globalpom/globalpom-groovy/globalpom- > groovy > [INFO] > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > [INFO] Reactor Summary: > [INFO] > [INFO] Global POM Groovy .................................
