Hi group,

I'm working on a legacy application that uses Maven for build, but not for 
release. For that it has a shell script that, among other things, does a single 
commit (representing the release) which includes a mix of manual and automated 
information in the commit message. I'm trying to convert this over to using the 
Maven Release Plugin. I'm quite familiar with that plugin, so I know that it 
doesn't typically work like this legacy script does. But in order to give the 
consumers of this process less change to deal with, I'm wondering if there's 
any workarounds to include a more-comprehensive commit message for the modified 
POMs commit (released version) and the tag "commit"? I think I know the answer, 
but it doesn't hurt to ask (yet) :)

I suppose I could cobble together some error-prone multi-line scmCommentPrefix 
value. This would be ideal, but the question never got answered:

Thanks. Best regards, Sander.
