Yann,
Many thanks for you help on this problem.
You were right, the release-pom.xml had erroneously got into CVS.
I removed it and the release:prepare got further, but it still failed:
Provider message:
The cvs command failed.
Command output:
remove: invalid option -- m
Usage: cvs remove [-flR] [files...]
-f Delete the file before removing it.
-l Process this directory only (not recursive).
-R Process directories recursively.
(Specify the --help global option for a list of other help options)

[ERROR] BUILD ERROR

[INFO] Diagnosis: Cannot remove c:\michaels_projects\transact\release-pom.xml
from development HEAD.
I am using cvsnt: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.0.51d (client/server)
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Michael McCrann

should be removed and is still there (or is back again)
Hi Michael,
To answer your several questions :
* The real release-plugin doco is still in progress, see :
http://docs.codehaus.org/display/MAVEN/Maven+Plugin+Matrix
* The release-plugin depends on maven-scm-* projects which in turn use the
external cvs. BTW, that's why you must have the path to cvs in your PATH.
* I've never seen your error below. What I know is m2 release:prepare creates
then commits a file named release-pom.xml. So, if this file already exists in
your baseline (because of your precedent tries), you could get such a message.
Try "cvs remove release-pom.xml".
HTH,
Yann
