I can see this code handling tagBase, but there is none for branchBase

            if ( !StringUtils.isEmpty( tagBase ) && repository.getProvider().equals( "svn" ) )
            {
                SvnScmProviderRepository svnRepo = (SvnScmProviderRepository) repository.getProviderRepository();
                svnRepo.setTagBase( tagBase );
            }

Adding a parallel handling for branchBase param should be trivial.

Correcting the documentation is another thing – the tagBase parameter is present on the base Mojo class even though it's ignored in some goals.
