Create a war file from a mercurial repository with maven

I have a mercurial repository on my server. I want to create a script to deploy the project as a war file to a tomc开发者_StackOverflow社区at server. Is it possible to tell maven to get the latest revision of my project from the repository and create a war file.

Thanks

You can use Maven SCM plugin, which has suport for multiple version control systems including Mercurial.
