I agree, it is a bit too late to change this behaviour now. Maybe some
other suffix like $ or ${fixed} or you-name-it could be the cure. Then
all existing builds would continue to work and if someone would not want
the artifact id appended, they can add the special character.

unsuspecting users.

I added a comment to http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-3244.
You may want to add you votes. Apparently, it was originally planned to
not append the artifact id unless the URL would end with a "/".

Hi Jens,
you are complaining about an essential feature of maven.
Having maven automatically extend the urls, scm urls, site
urls etc. with the list of parent artifact ids is crucial for
multi-module projects. No-one would want to enter this
information again and again through several levels of child
modules which are hosted within a common directory tree. I
agree that the docs are not clear about it, at least I
couldn't find it documented. I see your point, and there are
other problems, like when the directory name of a sub-module
is not equal to the artifact id, but in general it is an
important feature.
How to disable - I don't know. Maybe you will need to file
two things in
JIRA: a documentation request and a feature request to disable it.
HTH,
Stefan
We have a similar problem to Jens as our projects are structured in
"Eclipse friendly structure", e.g.
ParentProject
- pom.xml
ChildProject1
- pom.xml
- src/java etc
ChildProject2
- pom.xml
- src/java etc
Which is different to the standard Maven dir structure, e.g.
ParentProject
- pom.xml
- ChildProject1
- pom.xml
- src/java etc
- ChildProject2
- pom.xml
- src/java etc
It would make sense to me to be able to specify a different naming
strategy, perhaps the Maven one is used as a default, but you could
define a different naming strategy and set that to be used instead, e.g.
<scm namingStrategy="org.apache.maven.scm.FlatTreeNamingStrategy">
...
</scm>
That doesn't append artifactIds. Then if people had other weird and
whacky ways of structuring projects they could write custom naming
strategies to behave in accordance with their structures.
