tries to make empty commits when version doesn't change.
--------------------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-541
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-541
Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
Issue Type: Bug
Components: scm
Affects Versions: 2.0
Reporter: Maarten Billemont
We use "SNAPSHOT" as the development version, so not "X.Y-SNAPSHOT". When we
use goals such as release:branch to create a release branch, the release plugin
tries to create a new commit for that branch even though nothing was changed in
code (the main branch uses SNAPSHOT as version and the maintenance branch uses
SNAPSHOT too).
The release plugin should check whether there are changes before attempting to
perform a commit after updating versions.
