So, just to flesh that out a bit. Bearing in mind I know very little about maven: I use the maven scm plugin to tag the git repository a part of the "deploy" phase. I make the tag name based on the project name and version number. This process will then fail if there is already tag of the same name in the git repository. That sounds good. This gives me an alternative means of ensuring that there is only one thing called "myproject-1.0.0"
How do I ensure though that that fails before it then attempts to upload to the repository? This is where my lack of understanding of maven and its operating model comes in. I want it do this as part of me running "mvn deploy", but I need it to happen *first*, before the upload. Otherwise all I have is a "oh, by the way, the thing you just uploaded? That just overwrote something..." -----Original Message----- From: James Carman [mailto:ja...@carmanconsulting.com] Sent: 23 June 2017 19:04 To: users@felix.apache.org Subject: Re: API baselining with maven-bundle-plugin Presumably, you'd also have your SCM system standing watch. You shouldn't be able to recreate tags, for instance, and any good release process should include tagging of your released artifacts. Obviously, someone can delete tags, but that should be frowned upon.
