Description

Our Subversion requires a particular format on commit comments (that is : "tool:number free text").

While running the prepare goal, the plugin fails with a malformed comment.
Since there is no debug log on the comment used (if any), I am not sure the scmCommentPrefix is used.

According to source code of ScmTagPhase.java, the " copy for tag " + tagName is added to the prefix before calling the tag function which according to my plugin configuration should succeed, but it fails.

Here is the log with javasvn provider:
