Description

I deploy my Maven site over Mercurial on Google Code. I use this configuration

<distributionManagement>
	<!--Site deploy repository-->
	<site>
		<id>MYPROJECT.googlecode.com</id>
		<url>scm:hg:https://code.google.com/p/MYPROJECT.site/</url>
	</site>
</distributionManagement>

And a standard <server> in settings.xml

<servers>
	<server>
		<id>MYPROJECT.googlecode.com</id>
		<username>USERNAME</username>
		<password>PASSWORD</password>
	</server>
</servers>

However when running site:deploy it decides that it should add a dot to the URL, meaning it tries to execute this command

EXECUTING: /bin/sh -c cd /tmp && hg clone -r tip https://USERNAME:[e-mail]/p/MYPROJECT.site//. /tmp/wagon-scm1348091978.checkout

Which on Google and other repositories gives a 404 since the file . (look at the end of the URL) doesn't exist. Why is that period there? Is it coming from Maven Site or the Mercurial plugin (I'm assuming here)? Can it get removed>
