------------------------------
    Resolution: Not A Problem

> Allow multiple identities on same SCM host

>                 Key: SCM-826
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SCM-826
>             Project: Maven SCM
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: maven-plugin
>            Reporter: phansson
>            Priority: Major
>
> It is no longer uncommon for a developer to have several identities on a 
> single SCM host (just think of sites such as GitHub and BitBucket).
> The current scheme for centralizing credentials is to put them in 
> settings.xml and then Maven SCM Plugin will match the host name in {{<scm>}} 
> section of the POM with the {{<id>}} section from {{<server>}} in 
> settings.xml.
> As far as I know (pretty much undocumented) this scheme will currently only 
> work for a single identity at the VCS host.
> My proposal is to expand on the current scheme so that it will allow some 
> form of *longest match* which would include a potential prefixed username in 
> the SCM URL  (e.g. [email protected]) or matching on the URL path 
> (github.com/apache rather than just matching on the hostname itself).
> Here's an example of how I envisage it:
> {code:xml}
> <settings>
>   <servers>
>     <!-- Would match any GitHub URL with user1 prefixed in URL -->
>     <server>
>       <id>[email protected]</id>
>       <username>user1</username>
>       <password>mysecret</password>
>     </server>
>     <!-- Would match any GitHub URL with user2 prefixed in URL -->
>     <server>
>       <id>[email protected]</id>
>       <username>user2</username>
>       <password>mysecret</password>
>     </server>
>     <!-- Would match URLs from host github.com where path 
>            is 'apache' and also user2 is prefixed in URL -->
>     <server>
>       <id>[email protected]/apache</id>
>       <username>user2</username>
>       <password>mysecret</password>
>     </server>
>     <!-- default -->
>     <server>
>       <id>github.com</id>
>       <username>user1</username>
>       <password>mysecret</password>
>     </server>
> {code}
> This enhancement would be completely backwards compatible, is simple to 
> implement and will solve a lot of use cases in one go.
