Description

I have a Maven project that is not in the root of the Git repository. When I run a release:prepare the pom.xml is changed but never checked in.

07:52:47 [INFO] Checking in modified POMs...
07:52:47 [INFO] push changes to remote... refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master
07:52:47 [INFO] fetch url: ssh://myurl
07:52:47 [INFO] push url: ssh://myurl

In another project where the pom.xml is in the root of the repo i get following line printed after the “Checking in modified POMs…” line.

09:28:24 [INFO] commit done: [maven-release-plugin] prepare release my-prod-1.0.0

For a maven project in the following directory: /home/me/git/my-repo/src/pom.xml

The problem seems to be that in org.apache.maven.scm.provider.git.jgit.command.JGitUtils.addAllFiles(Git, ScmFileSet). The baseUri of the fileSet is /home/me/git/my-repo/src so the relativized path become pom.xml. But org.eclipse.jgit.api.AddCommand.addFilepattern(String) expects a repository relative path, i.e. src/pom.xml.

 

This patch https://github.com/apache/maven-scm/compare/master...attiand:fix relativize the path against the Git repo rather than the fileset, works for me.
