maven-changelog-plugin, svn & encrypted passwords

[Stevo Slavić <ss...@gmail.com>]

Hello Maven users,

Has anyone tried to use maven-changelog-plugin configured with encrypted
password? Following reporting section configuration works if I use plain
text password and fails authentication if I use encrypted password:

...
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-changelog-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.2</version>
        <configuration>
          <username><![CDATA[${env.SCM_USERNAME}]]></username>
          <password><![CDATA[${env.SCM_PASSWORD}]]></password>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
...


I couldn't find a ticket for this in maven-changelog-plugin's JIRA, so I
wanted to check with the community first (before venturing into plugin's
source code), could be I'm doing something wrong here. Not sure what
passphrase and passKey configuration parameters are used for (docs very thin
on this) or if they are related to this use case.

BTW some plugins, like maven-deploy-plugin, still document that Maven
doesn't support encrypted passwords yet...

Regards,
Stevo.
