Duncan Doyle commented on SCM-342:
----------------------------------

OK, I did some testing today using my patch on a Subversion repo ...... and it 
fails. The problem seems to be that when I specify a connection URL like 
"scm:svn:svn://localhost/testrepo/trunk/MavenRoot" for the Super Pom project 
(see the example in my original post), the directory in which the files are put 
are "/testrepo/tags/{myTag}" and NOT "/testrepo/tags/{myTag}/MavenRoot". I had 
expected that the SCM plugin would generate the latter structure, but it 
doesn't.

This results in a situation in which the tagging of the second project fails. 
Its connection URL is "scm:svn:svn//localhost/testrepo/trunk/Module1", and when 
the tag goal executes (with the patched plugin) it wants to create this 
structure "/testrepo/tags/{myTag}", which has already been created by the 
MavenRoot project, so the tagging fails.

I did another test in which I put my modules in a RootFolder in Subversion, so 
the location is "testrepo/trunk/RootFolder". So this RootFolder contains all 
the modules. I also adjusted the connection URLs in my POMs. When trying to tag 
this project, the directory was again "/testrepo/tags/{myTag}" and did not 
preserve the folder structure in the trunk.

Why does the plugin not preserve the original folder structure when tagging a 
project? There seems to be some other issues open on the SCM Subversion which 
basically have to do with the same problem, the plugin not being able to 
support a flat project stucture.

> I have a Maven2 Flat Project Layout as described here: 
> http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-ide-eclipse.html
> Basically my directory layout is as follows:
> /MavenRoot/pom.xml  (this is the SuperPom)
> /Module1/pom.xml
> /Module2/pom.xml
> /Module3/pom.xml
> Modules 1,2 and 3 are specified in the <modules> section of the SuperPom 
> (e.g() <module>../Module1</module>). Each POM contains its own CVS connection 
> URL.
> When I execute the scm:tag goal on the SuperPom in the MavenRoot project, 
> only the MavenRoot project gets tagged. The same behaviour can be seen with 
> the scm:update goal, which was fixed by providing a scm:update-subprojects 
> goal.
> I would like to see this behaviour fixed in the SCM plugin, while Maven2 
> advices a Flat Project Layout when working with Eclipse. At this moment I 
> can't use the tag goal at all (it should be executed automatically by 
> CruiseControl on a succesfull build).
