The answer is "it depends". When you work with the snapshots you are using a module that is in an undeterminate state. It might be in early phase of the version development and there are not update tasks yet or it might be in the very late stage and all the update tasks are already in place. In the first case you want to run the update tasks when moving to final version, in the second you don't. There is no signature for each task so it is not possible to determine whether given task was executed or not. Decision is in this case up to you as a maintainer of the system. If you don't want to have any tasks executed, leave everything as is and just replace snapshot jar with the final one. If on the other hand you want to execute the update tasks, change the version number of given module to the previous version and after the restart update tasks will be executed.
