Thanks for the reply.
When I started to use the plugin I was prefixing the URLs with
"scm:svn", but then I still had a problem so thought about exploring
and that is why I asked about setting the scm provider in a different
manner. I have again used these prefixes and I still get a problem.
Maven gave me the follow stacktrace below. I am using 2.0-beta-3 of the plugin.
During my reading of the site I noticed that both the scm and the
release plugin are similar. Is it right to think that the maven-scm
plugin is planned to allow developers to aquire a project without a
pom.xml and then to complete the every day version control tasks?
With this in mind is it best to view the maven-release plugin as a
component that should be used to release code for a repository instead
of completing a checkout/checkin, copy etc manually? I just want to
know the thoughts behind each plugin.
