Question

I\'m trying to release a Jenkins plugin (stashNotifier) with Maven and face a problem with the release plugin.

mvn clean release:prepare

Answer 1

Similar issue, but I had this problem, using Jenkins Release Plugin and Gitlab:

• First time it worked.
• Second time it wouldn't commit.

Turns out we had a typo in SCM config in our pom.xml, so the Project with typo got created on the first time. At the second time, Maven was accessing the outdated project and complained, not committing the changes.
