"maven 发布插件真的需要distributionManagement 元素吗？"

Question

I assumed for a long time that the distributionManagement tag was required for the maven release plugin because it needs to know where to upload the released artifacts. But to some extent this is true. If I configure my pom.xml like this, maven complains about missing distributionManagement:

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 https://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
    <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>
    <groupId>com.github.nbauma109</groupId>
    <artifactId>jd-util</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.16-SNAPSHOT</version>
    <scm>
        <connection>scm:git:https://github.com/nbauma109/jd-util.git</connection>
        <developerConnection>scm:git:ssh://git@github.com/nbauma109/jd-util.git</developerConnection>
        <url>https://github.com/nbauma109/jd-util</url>
        <tag>HEAD</tag>
    </scm>
</project>
