We love the git-commit-id-plugin and use it in combination with the jacoco plugin. The jacoco plugin creates a property which must be included in surefire runs as argLine.
When property filtering is active in the git-commit-id-plugin and generating a properties file is disabled, the git-commit-id-plugin operates on the maven project properties and removes all project properties not matching the patterns of , including the jacoco generated property and others not created by the git-commit-id-plugin.
Workaround: Disable property filtering.
I created an example setup to reproduce the issue at https://github.com/cbuschka/maven-git-commit-id-plugin-issue310.
