title: Migrating from SVN to Git, buildnumber-maven-plugin configuration to generate build number in git repo
body: <p>I have a big SVN repo. I used <strong>git svn clone</strong>, and cloned it to my local git repo. In SVN repo, when i use <strong>mvn clean install</strong>, i get a snapshot with a build number( I have the buildnumber-maven-plugin added in the pom). I am looking for the same to happen when i do <strong>mvn clean install</strong> in the git repo. what are the essential changes and configurations i have to make in the pom, for the build to work fine in the git repo?</p>
  
  <p>I have git 2.9.1 installed and buildnumber-maven-plugin is 1.3.</p>
