> release:branch and release:perform overwrites existing branch/version
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MRELEASE-615
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-615
> Project: Maven Release Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: branch
> Reporter: Chaitanya Gogineni
>
> Create a branch from the trunk using command
> mvn -DdevelopmentVersion=0.0.3-SNAPSHOT -DbranchName=testBranch release:branch
> The above command creates a branch under svn/branches/testBranch. then
> perform a release
> mvn release:prepare release:perform with release version 1.0.0
> Creates artifacts with version 1.0.0 and uploads them to the repository.
> I run the same command again the next day
> mvn -DdevelopmentVersion=0.0.3-SNAPSHOT -DbranchName=testBranch release:branch
> mvn release:prepare release:perform
> It overwrites the files in the existing branch svn/branches/testBranch and
> also overwrites the existing released artifacts in the repository.
> The release:branch should thrown an error saying branch with the name already
> exists or there should be an overwrite parameter (with default false) to
> indicate if we want to overwrite.
> Error should be thrown if the release version for artifacts already exists in
> the repository. This check should happen under release:prepare phase.
