Hi,
We would like to use the RPM Maven Plugin but a stumbling block for us is the fact that we have to manually update the release # of the package. In our current homegrown ant based system we increment the release automatically and check it back into SCM (clearcase for us) as part of the packaging step. Is this a feature that can be added? I took a quick look at the maven-release-plugin and the SCM code seems a little hairy for something that was pretty trivial in Ant.
Also, do you think it would be worthwhile adding the created RPM package as an attached artifact to the project? I assume this would end up deploying the artifact to the repository which I think would be nice.
Thanks,
Pete
