Description

A NullPointerException occurs on line 1495 of class ChangeLogReport, when the pom.xml file does not specify a scm <url> tag, even if the <displayFileDetailUrl> is specified.

From what I saw in the code, the offending line is (in generateLinks() method):
if ( !scmUrl.equals( linkFile ) )

reversing the comparison should be sufficient (I think):

if ( !linkFile.equals( scmUrl ) )
