title: Maven release plugin jar-with-dependencies
body: <p>I've got the maven-assembly-plugin section of the pom file made like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>        &lt;plugin&gt;
              &lt;artifactId&gt;maven-assembly-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
              &lt;version&gt;2.5.3&lt;/version&gt;
              &lt;configuration&gt;
                  &lt;archive&gt;
                      &lt;manifest&gt;
                          &lt;mainClass&gt;com.my.package.MyMainClass&lt;/mainClass&gt;
                      &lt;/manifest&gt;
                      &lt;manifestEntries&gt;
                          &lt;Class-Path&gt;.&lt;/Class-Path&gt;
                      &lt;/manifestEntries&gt;
                  &lt;/archive&gt;
                  &lt;descriptorRefs&gt;
                      &lt;descriptorRef&gt;jar-with-dependencies&lt;/descriptorRef&gt;
                  &lt;/descriptorRefs&gt;
              &lt;/configuration&gt;
              &lt;executions&gt;
               &lt;execution&gt;
                   &lt;id&gt;make-assembly&lt;/id&gt;
                   &lt;goals&gt;
                       &lt;goal&gt;single&lt;/goal&gt;
                   &lt;/goals&gt;
               &lt;/execution&gt;
              &lt;/executions&gt;
          &lt;/plugin&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and the maven-release-plugin like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;plugin&gt;
              &lt;groupId&gt;org.apache.maven.plugins&lt;/groupId&gt;
              &lt;artifactId&gt;maven-release-plugin&lt;/artifactId&gt;
              &lt;version&gt;2.5.1&lt;/version&gt;
              &lt;configuration&gt;
                  &lt;goals&gt;deploy&lt;/goals&gt;
                  &lt;checkModificationExcludeList&gt;pom.xml&lt;/checkModificationExcludeList&gt;
                  &lt;tagNameFormat&gt;@{project.version}&lt;/tagNameFormat&gt;
                  &lt;providerImplementations&gt;
                      &lt;git&gt;jgit&lt;/git&gt;
                  &lt;/providerImplementations&gt;                  
              &lt;/configuration&gt;
              &lt;dependencies&gt;
                  &lt;dependency&gt;
                      &lt;groupId&gt;org.apache.maven.scm&lt;/groupId&gt;
                      &lt;artifactId&gt;maven-scm-provider-jgit&lt;/artifactId&gt;
                      &lt;version&gt;1.9.2&lt;/version&gt;
                  &lt;/dependency&gt;
              &lt;/dependencies&gt;
          &lt;/plugin&gt;

  <p>I need to release for Archiva a jar-with-dependency file, but the release:perform command upploads only the jar without any dependencies inside. What am I missing?</p>
