["Paul Gier (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

Paul Gier commented on SCM-335:
-------------------------------

There is a more up to date version of that plugin here:
http://mojo.codehaus.org/buildnumber-maven-plugin/

Although I don't know if it correctly handles the localization.

> I'd like to add in my artifacts manifest the SVN revision number. 
> The scm plugin seems to be the best place to extract such info, but doesn't seem to yet have support for this.
> I'd like to see some scm:revision goal in the plugin, to set a property I can use later. 
> I've found this plugin :
> http://commons.ucalgary.ca/projects/maven-buildnumber-plugin/howto.html
> but it has the issue of parsing the text-based svn output. As a french user, svn is localized and doesn't return the expected "Revision" property (but R*é*vision).
> Maybe I looking in the wrong place as revision number concept is not portable to CVS, for example, and maybe neither to other SCM tools.
