["Darryl L. Miles (JIRA)" <ji...@codehaus.org>]

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-801?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=315028#comment-315028 ] 

Darryl L. Miles commented on MRELEASE-801:
------------------------------------------

http://maven.apache.org/pom.html#SCM

This is kind of a legacy matter, when the pom.xml was designed git didn't exist.

It would be better however if the actual original value was restored, rather than the "effective model" value of "HEAD" when the <tag> element was not present before.

> The branch mojo produces <tag>HEAD</tag>. This can't be right; HEAD isn't the name of a branch, it's the name of a ref.
