Description

Currently, Changelog plugin don't support Subversion's tag.
This patch make The "tag" type report available even if you are using Subversion.
This gets each revision of tags in Subversion system, and generates the log-report between those revisions.

For example, assume you have following repositoy structure:

http://example.com/svn/project
         +trunk/
         |    +src/
         |      ...
         +tags/
         |    +1.0/
         |    +1.1/
         |    +1.2/
         |    +2.0/
         |    +2.1/
         +branches/
              +1.x/

To generate svn log's between 1.1 and 1.2 tag in 1.x branch:
[pom.xml]

  ...
  <!-- Subversion repositoy -->
  <scm>
    <!-- svn connection -->
    <connection>scm:svn:http://example.com/svn/project</connection>
  </scm>
  ...
  <reporting>
    <plugins>
      <!-- changelog-plugin -->
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
        <artifactId>maven-changelog-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.2.1</version>
        <configuration>
          <!-- type is "tag" -->
          <type>tag</type>
          <tags>
            <!-- between 1.1 and 1.2 tag -->
            <tag implementation="java.lang.String">1.2</tag>
            <tag implementation="java.lang.String">1.1</tag>
          </tags>
          <!-- in 1.x branch -->
          <branchBase>branches/1.x</branchBase>
          <!-- encoding -->
          <outputEncoding>Windows-31J</outputEncoding>
        </configuration>
      </plugin>
    </plugins>
  </reporting>
  ...

            <tag implementation="java.lang.String">2.1</tag>
          </tags>
          <!-- in trunk (Default brancheBase is trunk. So, branchBase
               element is optional when to use trunk. ) -->
          [<branchBase>trunk</branchBase>]
          <!-- encoding -->
          <outputEncoding>Windows-31J</outputEncoding>
