Description

The developerConnection MUST now be placed in the pom. In the previous version, it was possible to give it on the command line. Which was usefull when you want to build source stored on a "private" repository, and that you don't want to expose the adress of this repository in your sources (in pom.xml) that you distribute.

By the way, the doc still mention it.

Note also that in a case of a multi-project (without inheritance), the scm tag must be placed on all sub-modules as well.
