Title Body

In our SVN repo, we store tags like this: trunk project_a project_b branches project_a branch_x branch_y project_b tags project_a 1.0 1.1 project_b 1.0 When I run the Maven release plugin's " prepare " goal on project A, by default it creates the tag as "tags/project_a-x.x", which does not match my tag naming scheme above. I am thus depending upon whoever does the release (i.e. a fallible human) to spot this and change the tag to "tags/project_a/x.x". How can I tell the release plugin to use the correct format by default? The "prepare" goal has a " tag " configuration option that claims to do this, but if I set it as follows: <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-release-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.1</version> <configuration> <tag>${project.artifactId}/${project.version}</tag> </configuration> </plugin> ... then the created tag is "tags/project_a/x.x-SNAPSHOT", i.e. it uses the pre-release version number instead of the release version number. Hardcoding the tag name into the POM seems wrong too. How can I ensure that the tag is correct by default?
