Hervé Boutemy commented on MNG-5878:
------------------------------------

that's not so easy to imagine: that's why I wrote unit tests regarding url 
interpolation :)

imagine: parent pom has 4 modules: module-a, module-b, module-c and module-d
and module-a has "artifact-a" artifactId

When bluiding, with module-a module in module-a directory, yes, this 
project.directory is a duplication of information

But once everything is deployed to repository, and you try to calculate 
effective artifact-a, you can't know which of the 4 modules it represents if it 
doesn't contain a hint to tell "I'm module-a: that's the relative path to add 
to parent url"

> add support for module name != artifactId in every calculated URLs (SCM, 
> site): special project.directory property

> Say you have this project structure:
> {noformat}
> /
>   |-- module1
>   |-- module2
> {noformat}
> and artifactIds are named:
> {noformat}
> my-parent
>   |-- my-module1
>   |-- my-module2
> {noformat}
> Prefix {{my-}} is omitted for brevity in module names. For instance, Jersey 
> does that.
> When the SCM report is built, the artifactId is always used for path 
> composition which leads to incorrect URLs. You can of course set the 
> parameter {{checkoutDirectoryName}} but this would be extremely tedious for 
> all modules down the tree.
> The code should obtain the module name and use it for URL composition.
