git-tag-maven-plugin

Tag the current head of the local git repository with a tagName and message. This annotated tag is then pushed to a remote repository. The push can optionally be disabled.

The credentials used to authenticate to the remote repository are extracted from the servers section of the maven settings.xml. The particular server credentials are selected by matching the host portion of the git url with a server id.

URL	ServerId
git⁠@github.com:chonton/git-tag-maven-plugin.git	github.com
https⁠://github.com/chonton/git-tag-maven-plugin.git	github.com

The credentials parameters must correlate with the provided url.

URL	Required Credential Parameter(s)
git⁠@github.com:chonton/git-tag-maven-plugin.git	<username> & <password>
ssh git url	<privateKey>

If an ssh git url is provided and you want to use standard ssh configuration from the ~/.ssh directory instead of using ~/.m2/settings.xml, set the useDotSsh parameter to true.

An alternate branch can be specified. An alternate remote repository can also be specified.
