Peter Kronenberg updated MRELEASE-1065:
---------------------------------------
    Description: 
Hi, hope this is the right place for questions

I'm trying to figure out the proper workflow for creating a new release in a 
branch, but still setting the current branch for new development

Assuming I'm currently at release 1.0.5-SNAPSHOT. If I do *mvn 
release:prepare*, it correctly updates the version to 1.0.5, tags it, and then 
sets up for new development with 1.0.6-SNAPSHOT.

I want to do something similar with a new branch instead of tagging. My 
expectation would be the new branch would get 1.0.5 and the current branch 
would get 1.0.6-SNAPSHOT

Using the command 


{code:java}
mvn release:branch -DbranchName=1.0.5 -DreleaseVersion=1.0.5
{code}


I've tried variations of *-DupdateBranchVersions* and 
*-DupdateWorkingCopyVersions*. It doesn't appear to do what I want. I also 
can't seem to get *-DupdateVersionsToSnapshot=false* to work. It insists on 
naming the branch with Snapshot

Is there any way to do this?

can't seem to get `-DupdateVersionsToSnapshot=false` to work. It insists on
