Should fail during release:prepare if scm:url doesn't match working copy
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-494
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-494
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: prepare
Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-9
Environment: Subversion SCM; working in a branch
Reporter: David M. Lee
The release plugin should check scm:url against the output of {{svn info}}. If
they don't match, it should fail with an error.
We had a situation where the pom file in a branch was screwed up during a
merge, such that scm:url was incorrect. In our case, it pointed to the trunk
instead of the branch.
This caused release:prepare to silently do the wrong thing. It would still do
the normal edit/commit in the working copy of the branch, but then it would do
the copy using the scm:url. In our case, this meant that the tag was copied
from the trunk instead of the branch.
In fact, release:perform also completed successfully; our only indication that
there was a problem was the version number of the released artifacts.
We cannot set remotetagging=false due to the Subversion bug trying to copy with
svn > 1.5.
