Maven release prepare fails on svn complaining about a pom that already exists in the svn repository tag

Posted on October 16, 2008 by Odd Christer Brovig

The problem is with the svn client, at least version 1.5.1 and 1.5.2.

The workaround is simply:

svn up -r head

I have the same problem with 1.5.4 on Windows. The workaround solves it, too.

Thanks
