> Branches and Tags are created from the current working directory, which isn't always correct and there isn't a way to override the working directory.
> For example, we have the following directory structure:
> ${root}/master/pom.xml - The modules section include relative paths to modules a, b, and c.
> ${root}/module-a/pom.xml
> ${root}/module-b/pom.xml
> ${root}/module-c/pom.xml
> All subversion copies (via branch or prepare) originate from ${root}/master.  As a result, they are incomplete; we really want to create copies from ${root} not ${root}/master.  Here's the subversion command that I think is the problem:
> {noformat}
> [INFO] Working directory: C:\devsys\repos\trunk\master
> [INFO] Branching release with the label release-1.0...
> [INFO] Executing: svn --non-interactive copy --file C:\Users\cnelson\AppData\Local\Temp\maven-scm-1179760787.commit . http://hostname/svn/dev/branches/release-1.0
> {noformat}
> The period after the filename is what's indicating to subversion to create the copy from master instead of ${root}.  Note: the working directory is derived from the basedir and I couldn't find a way to override the basedir.
> While not having the master pom at the root of the project may be a little uncommon, it doesn't seem unreasonable.  Can we add a configuration option to handle these cases?
