Prevent snapshot version bumping does not seem to work
------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MRELEASE-714
                 URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-714
             Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 2.2.1
            Reporter: Paul S


I want to use the release plugin within our company, and I want to create a 
tags for multi-module projects, such as the following example:

tags/parent-1.0.0
- child1  (1.0.0)
- child2  (1.0.0)

When I do "release: prepare", snapshots with an increased version are created 
and committed for every parent/child module, so:

parent-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT, child1-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT, child2-1.0.0-SNAPSHOT

becomes:

parent-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT, child1-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT, child2-1.0.1-SNAPSHOT

However, when I create a release I don't want to automatically create snapshot 
versions for every child module, so I'd like to bump the version number to 
1.0.1-SNAPSHOT manually. Sometimes we create a new release in which for 
instance 3 of the 10 child modules have actually been updated, so we want to 
just set those 3 version numbers to an increased SNAPSHOT version. I tried 
accomplishing this by setting the following properties to false:
<updateWorkingCopyVersions>false</updateWorkingCopyVersions>
<updateDependencies>false</updateDependencies>

However, whatever I try, it doesn't work. The 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT versions keep 
getting bumped to 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT.

Furthermore, a little off topic, but is it possible to have version numbers 
created for sub modules? E.g.: 

tags/parent-1.0.0
- child1-1.0.0
- child2-1.0.0)
