nicola sinapsi updated MRELEASE-583:
------------------------------------

    Attachment: better-snapshot-dependency.patch

I have attached a patch with the enhancement, and corrected the corresponding 
test (CheckDependencySnapshotsPhaseTest).

The patch is pretty straightforward.
I could  check whether all the integration tests are still working since i 
didn't succed in running all of them.

> The plugin has a simple snapshot dependency resolution mechanism.
> When a snapshot dependency is found, it allows for setting it to release... 
> but it does not allows to choice the release version to use:
> <code>
> Resolve Project Dependency Snapshots.: 'com.sinapsi.libs:sinapsi-commons' set 
> to release? (yes/no) yes: : yes
> What is the next development version? (2.1.3-SNAPSHOT) 2.1.3-SNAPSHOT: : 
> </code>
> in this case the versions are:
> current: 2.1.2-SNAPSHOT
> release: 2.1.2
> next: 2.1.3-SNAPSHOT
> The problem is that the only allowed development version is 2.1.3-SNAPSHOT 
> (the value between the parentheses), hence the only allowed release version 
> is 2.1.2.
> Notably, you cannot specify an OLDER relase (such as 2.1.1): this means you 
> are forced to release the dependency (you cannot use an already released 
> version).
> It would be better to ask for the release version to use, and then set the 
> snapshot as the release following the release version specified by the user:
> <code>
> Resolve Project Dependency Snapshots.: 'com.sinapsi.libs:sinapsi-commons' set 
> to release? (yes/no) yes: : yes
> What is the release version? 2.1.2: : 2.3.0
> </code>
> in this case the versions are:
> current: 2.1.2-SNAPSHOT
> release: 2.3.0
> next: 2.3.1-SNAPSHOT
> The plugin suggests to set the release version to 2.1.2, but the user can 
> choice another version, eventually an already released version.
