maven prepare-release from existing tag ?
When i call maven scm:prepare-release, i got the following
error:
cvs server: sticky tag `xyz' for file `project.xml' is not a branch
[cvs] cvs [server aborted]: correct above errors first!
I know the meaning! But how do i tag/release if an existing tag
exists ? f.e. i run prepare-release from head an created a
release candiate tag -> then testing the rc -> after testing i want
to checkout this rc and want to make a release tag with prepare-
release. Then i got this error !
Any idea ? Any settings ?

if you want to prepare the release from HEAD, cvs update -A
if you need to create the release from a tag in the past as you are
attempting, you will need to create a branch and update to that
cvs tag -b foo
cvs update -r foo
maven scm:prepare-release
This is because project.xml and changes.xml get modified and committed
(so you could just branch those if necessary)
