[jira] (MSITE-600) site plugin 3.0 does not permit a child to fully override parent site deployment URL

["Dan Rollo (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MSITE-600?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=316598#comment-316598 ] 

Dan Rollo commented on MSITE-600:
---------------------------------

I intended to, but did not file a new Jira Issue for this problem.

I wanted to create a simple set of test projects that demonstrate the problem, and submit these with the new Jira info (and never got around to it).

I still think it is worth doing that (and still don't have the cycles right now...) because I'm still seeing unexpected URL values with the latest site plugin too. (And the difference between the "effective pom" and the actual is troubling - maybe that is related to other changes needed in the core?).

> The test cases here has a parent with a a distributionManagement/site/url, and then a child which overrides it with an absolute URL. Except that the override does not work ... or, at least, looks quite peculiar. 
> the parent is file:///tmp/bloop
> the child is scp://localhost:/tmp/blop

> [INFO] Error uploading site
> Embedded error: Could not make directory '/tmp/bloop/../../Users/benson/asf/mvn/site-interp-muddle/child/scp:/localhost:/tmp/blop'.
