Hi,
What is the purpose of having staging Nexus repositories if we provide
build setups that automatically close and release them to the main repo?
Why not use the main repo instead for the release process?
This is just the default behavior when you user those parent pom but:
* you can disable it for your project if you want
* you might not want to give release right just yet to some junior
release manager (in which case the staging repository is closed and
wait for release from another user)
Plus I'm really not motivated enough to start a discussion about
wether or not we should completely ditch staging, I know I don't need
staging in my use cases and I'm tired of going to the UI every time so
I provided a helper :)
Re staging repos, AFAIK we have pretty much never used them correctly (i.e.
committers closing and releasing the staging repo taking the builds and
testing them locally before they proceed) and specially now that contrib
users can close and release themselves (correct me if I`m wrong on this
one), this becomes more and more of a cumbersome step that, IMO, we should
remove.
The only advantage of releasing to a different repo than the main one would
be to validate that the released artefact has the right groupID before
automatically pushing it into the main repo (if that is possible with
Nexus), but I`m just guessing here.
One thing we are supposed to do and still never did is to use Nexus
validation possibility to enforce some rules on deployed contrib
extensions during close.
Thanks,
Eduard

I just released a new version of the Contrib
parent poms which add
support for automatic close and release on Nexus repository.
See https://github.com/xwiki-contrib/parent.
