CVS plugin crashes Maven release builds with the error "Cannot prepare the release because you have local modifications"

    • cvs-plugin
    • CentOS, Jenkins 1.463, CVS plugin 2.3, Jenkins Maven Release Plugin 0.9.1

      1. Install Jenkins Maven Release Plugin 0.9.1
      2. Make a new project and add the pom.xml file containing the following settings:

      ...
      <scm>
          <developerConnection>scm:cvs:pserver:CVS-ACCOUNT:PASSWORD@CVS-SERVER:/REPOSITORY:MODULE</developerConnection>
      </scm>
      ...
      <build>
      <plugins>
      <plugin>
          <groupId>maven</groupId>
          <artifactId>maven-scm-plugin</artifactId>
          <version>1.6.1</version>
      </plugin>
      <plugin>
          <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
          <artifactId>maven-release-plugin</artifactId>
          <version>2.2.2</version>
          <configuration>
             <useReleaseProfile>false</useReleaseProfile>
          </configuration>
      </plugin>
      </plugins>
      </build>
      ...
      <distributionManagement>
          <repository>
              <id>my-releases</id>
              <!-- specify any valid HTTP URL -->
              <url>ANY_RELEASES_REPOSITORY_URL</url>
          </repository>
      </distributionManagement>
      ...
      

      3. Import the project into your CVS server
      4. Create a new maven job and specify all the necessary CVS connection settings
      5. Open the job page and click the link "Perform Maven Release"

      Expected: the job compiles the project and publishes a newly created artefact

      Actual: the job is crushed with the error "Cannot prepare the release because you have local modifications" (see attachments for details)

      Important note: everything works properly if I use CVS plugin version 1.6

          Can we get some details on your job config: are you building on a branch/tag/head, and are you using 'update' or 'checkout'? If possible, attach your config.xml for your job (obscure any sensitive values) so I can try and replicate your setup.

          1. I'm building on HEAD revision.
          2. Update.
          3. Unfortunately I had to rollback the plugin and therefore lost my buggy job. But my current configuration (with the rolled back CVS plugin) is rather similar (attached).
