This is not a problem report, but more an information request.
The <scm> section in my poms never had a <tag> section.
I just noticed the release plugin (2.3.2) is adding <tag> to the <scm> section of poms during a release:

<scm>
...
    <tag>HEAD<tag>
<scm>

The maven docs say this is the default value by convention (when not configured).

Also, in the tag created during the release process, the <tag> is appropriately updated to the name of the newly created tag in the pom in that git tag.

Just wondering: when, and why did this behavior start?
I was surprised to see this new tag after doing a release, and would like to understand why it is needed. Is it a git/tag thing?

In case it matters, the scm is git.

Thanks!

Dan Rollo
