Maven StatCvs Plugin

A plugin to generate statistics about CVS usage using StatCvs-XML. This page and plugin is maintained by the authors of StatCvs-XML. It superseeds the StatCvs plugin formerly shipped with maven.

Customization

The output of StatCvs-XML, i.e. the generated documents and the format of the reports, is highly customizable. StatCvs-XML looks for a file called statcvs.xml in the current directory (the directory Maven was started from) to read project settings.

Please see the StatCvs-XML manual for configuration options. The properties page describes customization settings for the plugin.
