Artifact type getting changed

[chetan mehrotra <ch...@gmail.com>]

I was trying to use the Assembly plugin to create a zip consisting of
javadoc, source and class jar files. The Maven project consist of multi
module projects.While writing the assembler descriptor I observed that type
for source jar was getting changed depedending on the phases included in
lifecycle. After putting debug point in assembly plugin code it was observed
that

<groupId>:<artifactId>:java-source:sources
<groupId>:<artifactId>:jar:sources

As I was using the includes without any pattern the source jar got missed
sometimes. I had to change it to a pattern to get the jar included.

Any pointers on why this would be happening?

which reproduces the issue.
