Hi Rob, I just tried to use the release plugin and I am getting this problem (again?).
Is there a workaround? mvn -Dcommons.release-plugin.version=1.3-SNAPSHOT -Prelease clean package site deploy [INFO] --- commons-release-plugin:1.3-SNAPSHOT:stage-distributions (stage-distributions) @ commons-dbcp2 --- [INFO] Preparing to stage distributions [INFO] Checking out dist from: scm:svn: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/dbcp Executing: cmd.exe /X /C "svn --username ggregory --no-auth-cache --non-interactive checkout https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/dbcp C:\vcs\git\apache\commons\commons-dbcp\target\commons-release-plugin\scm" Working directory: C:\vcs\git\apache\commons\commons-dbcp\target\commons-release-plugin [INFO] Copying RELEASE-NOTES.txt to working directory.
