Preserve double slashes in the scm connection url - identifies absolute
repository paths for mercurial
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MNG-4966
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-4966
Project: Maven 2 & 3
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 3.0.1, 3.0
Reporter: Fredrik Jonson
Attachments: maven-3.0-preserve-double-shashes.patch
The mercurial scm (hg) use double slashes after the hostname part of the
repository url to identify that a repository path is absolute, as opposed to
relative. Maven should not remove such double slashes from the scm connection
url.
The following is an example of a absolute repository path:
scm:hg:ssh://localhost//opt/foo. Note the double slash between 'localhost' and
'opt', it is interpreted by hg as the absolute path /opt/foo on the server
localhost.
A relative repository url on the other hand, scm:hg:ssh://localhost/foo, is
resolved relative to the user's home directory on the server localhost, f.x
/home/user/foo.
With maven 3.0 and 3.0.1 double slashes are silently removed and it is thus not
possible to release a project that use a absolute scm connection url with
mercurial.
The provide patch removes the removal of double slashes from the url
normalizer. It also change the test case for the removal code to test that
url:s that contain double slashes are preserved instead.
