So, I'm trying to wrap my head around branches, especially on the provider side. I used to verify my contracts using

mvn

, and because my provider is a Spring service, this works fine:

mvn clean "-Dpact.verifier.publishResults=true" "-Dpact.provider.version=1.0.0-address-ee07f8c04721b90be743fc1c08946663f01e6e46" test

However, I now also want to list the provider branch, but when I try this (following the docs):

mvn clean "-Dpact.verifier.publishResults=true" "-Dpact.provider.version=1.0.0-address-ee07f8c04721b90be743fc1c08946663f01e6e46" "-Dpactbroker.providerBranch=main" test

It does not record the provider branch. Any ideas? Is this even important? I know I will need it in the next step, when I'll introduce pending pacts...

Where were you expecting docs for that to be? In the readme for the Maven plugin? Or on docs.pact.io?

Hey Ron, I don’t know what I was doing and what page I was looking at exactly (not at the laptop right now) but I can see it here: https://docs.pact.io/implementation_guides/jvm/docs/system-properties I stand corrected.
