Trouble with Release-Plugin and SVN

[Hendrik Busch <he...@lexisnexis.de>]

Hi,

I've got trouble performing a release of a maven project using the
release-plugin and SVN. All SCM-paths are setup correctly, but there
seems a to be problem with the way Maven calls my local svn-command.

When I run 

  mvn release:prepare -DdryRun=true

I get the following (even if I omit the dry-run-flag)

[hb@pcbusch trunk]$ mvn release:prepare -DdryRun=true
[INFO] Scanning for projects...
[INFO] Searching repository for plugin with prefix: 'release'.
[INFO]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] Building LexDB SearchEngine
[INFO]    task-segment: [release:prepare] (aggregator-style)
[INFO]
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

[INFO] [release:prepare]
[INFO] What tag name should be used?
REL_0-2
[INFO] Verifying there are no local modifications ...
[INFO] Checking lineage for snapshots ...
[INFO] Checking dependencies for snapshots ...
[INFO] Checking plugins for snapshots ...
[INFO] What is the release version for
'de.lexisnexis.database:searchengine'? [0.2]

[INFO] Checking in modified POMs
[INFO] Tagging release with the label REL_0-2.
Provider message:
The svn tag command failed.
Command output:
svn: Lokale Operationen ohne Übertragung benötigen keine Log-Meldung

[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ERROR] BUILD ERROR
[INFO]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
[INFO] An error is occurred in the tag process.


The svn message translated rougly to: 

Local operations without transmission do not need a log message



Another problem is that the plugin already checks in the modified
release version of the POM although the dry-run flag is specified and I
have to rollback this modification manually.

Has anybody an idea how to perform a working release with Maven and SVN?
I'm running Maven 2.0.5 and the installed SVN version is 1.3.2.

Thank you!
