Description

I did a checkout (using TortoiseSVN) from https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/components/branches/maven-2.1.x/, on my system which doesn't have the command line svn client installed, causing the build to fail as in the attached build.log.

This is caused by this issue: MOJO-936 in buildnumber-maven-plugin. The remedy is to modify maven-core/pom.xml and any other POMs where the plugin is used by upgrading the version of that plugin and adding the <revisionOnScmFailure/> element like so:

<plugin>
  <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
  <artifactId>buildnumber-maven-plugin</artifactId>
  <version>1.0-beta-3</version>
  <executions>
    <execution>
      <phase>generate-resources</phase>
      <goals>
        <goal>create</goal>
      </goals>
    </execution>
  </executions>
  <configuration>
    <doCheck>false</doCheck>
    <doUpdate>false</doUpdate>
    <revisionOnScmFailure>0</revisionOnScmFailure>
    <format>NON-CANONICAL_{0,date,yyyy-MM-dd_HH-mm}_{1}</format>
    <items>
      <item>timestamp</item>
      <item>${user.name}</item>
    </items>
  </configuration>
</plugin>
