Look out for this in the upcoming 2.1 version of the plugin.
See this issue:

So is there any solution or any kind of work around? Can I manually change
that message somewhere?
A message saying "Changes from an unknown range" on my most important site
page does not seem to impress my boss alot :\

Hi Nate,
As far as I know, the plugin does not resolve the last revision dates
for each tag. Maybe the text "Changes from an unknown range" should be
replace with "Changes from <start-tag> to <end-tag>"

When I generate the changelog plugin using the tag type with CVS, I get
the following string at the top of the page: "Changes from an unknown
range".
Here is part of my POM:
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-changelog-plugin</artifactId>
<version>2.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
<reportSets>
<reportSet>
<id>single-report</id>
<configuration>
<type>tag</type>
<tags>
<tag implementation="java.lang.String">MyApp_0_7_rc1</tag>
<tag implementation="java.lang.String">MyApp_0_7_rc2</tag>
</tags>
</configuration>
...
</reportSet>
</reportSets>
</plugin>
If I use the date or range type, that field is filled in correctly with
the date range. I looked at the changelog.xml file that is generated for
both the tag type and a date type, and the start and end dates attributes
were not filled in for the tag output. I believe these start and end
attributes are was is being read in by the report generator and used for
the range.
Generated changelog.xml from tag type:
<changelog>
<changeset datePattern="yyyyMMdd HH:mm:ss z">
<changelog-entry>
...
Generated changelog.xml from date type:
<changelog>
<changeset datePattern="yyyyMMdd HH:mm:ss z" start="20061018 00:00:00
CDT" end="20061025 00:00:00 CDT">
<changelog-entry>
...
I looked into the changelog plugin source, and found that the changeset
element and attributes are generated by an SCM plugin object. I tried to
go into that source code, but I was unsuccessful in tracking down the
exact location where those fields are filled in. Is it possible to get
the tag range displayed instead of an unknown date range?
Thanks,
-Nate
