I want to use git to store my mvn projects. I have a bare git repository containing multiple projects and I have cloned the bare repository to a local repository and I am working in each mvn project. $ cd $HOME $ git clone ssh://mycomputer.foobar.com/Users/git/repository and then I have my mvn projects layed out as: $HOME/git/com.foobar.mygroup/project.one $HOME/git/com.foobar.mygroup/project.two ... When I run mvn release:prepare all seems ok but it fails on mvn release:perform. [INFO] [INFO] Cannot execute mojo: resources. It requires a project with an existing pom.xml, but the build is not using one. I notice the working directory is target/checkout and this has the complete source tree of the repository which means the project pom.xml is found 2 levels down in target/checkout/com.foobar.mygroup/project.one. I have browsed the scm and git plugin documentation and I don't find anything to tell me how to configure my project plug in to get a sub-tree of the repository rather than the whole repository. Any help would be gratefully received.
