[jira] Reopened: (MRELEASE-590) release:perform fails on Git repository relative path

["Andrey Paramonov (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

     [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-590?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Andrey Paramonov reopened MRELEASE-590:
---------------------------------------


According to the error message, the failed operation was clone, and cloning from present directory makes perfect sense in Git, and it actually works well in this plugin when you specify absolute path to the present directory.

According to SCM-444 the present directory syntax also make sense for other Git/Maven users.

Can you please explain what you mean by Git provider? As I noted before the following command works fine in Git itself:

git clone file://. target/checkout

and SCM plugin was also updated to support relative paths. Plus, since release:prepare works as expected, your Git provider definitely supports relative paths in check in operation. If it doesn't support them in check out, then it's a bug.
