Stephen Colebourne created MRELEASE-980:
-------------------------------------------
Summary: Provide the ability to control commit messages
Key: MRELEASE-980
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRELEASE-980
Project: Maven Release Plugin
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: prepare
Affects Versions: 2.5.3
Reporter: Stephen Colebourne
Fix For: 3.0.0
The commit messages used by maven-release-plugin are rather ugly to my eyes.
While the comment prefix provides some control, what is really needed is to be
able to change the whole message from xml configuration.
I've implemented this here:
https://github.com/jodastephen/maven-release/commit/35b2a50900cfc8e8fca88a94e46985a09e538e86
(all rights granted to Apache - I'm still a committer at Apache Commons.
It adds four new properties that allow the commit message to be controlled at
various points. The commit message can be configured using `@{}` style inserts.
There are more messages that could be controlled, but these were all I needed.
Note that issue MRELEASE-706 originally requested this feature, but it was
closed due to inactivity.
