Has someone tried to approach this problem by using different group
repositories, one for each branch?
In particular when using a repository manager like Nexus, one could have for
each SCM branch a snapshot repo, a release repo and a repo group combining them
(plus other third party repos).
I could imagine a Maven plugin setting the repository URLs accordingly.
In a CI build one would have a private local repository, of course.
Developers would need to be careful, though, when working with multiple
branches on the same local repository. Or maybe the local repo would be
per-branch, too?
When pulling a new branch, the repositories on the repository manager could be
created automatically.
Thoughts?

Hi there,
I've seen indication when searching the internet that it isn't possible to
put variables in<version> of a project (unless those variables are
hardcoded<properties> or provided at the command line), but I thought I'd
ask the list ...
Say there was a plugin that would invoke 'git branch' to determine the
current branch, and to then make that available to the project as a
variable; call it ${branch}. I'd like to use this variable then in the
version tag:
<project>
<groupId>blah</groupId>
<artifactId>blah</artifactId>
<version>${branch}-SNAPSHOT</version>
</project>
The reason I want to do this is that I'm realizing, for our internal-only
code projects, that a branch is always synonymous with a version of a
project, and ideally the act of being of switching branches would be all it
takes to switch your maven project's version.
Is this possible if I were to make a maven plugin?
Thanks!
Seth
