I think this is a minor bug.

let's sum up the facts:

a.) if you start the mvn release:prepare in a certain directory, maven will 
_not_ automatically step out of this directory.

b.) If the parent pom is outside of your <scm> url location, then it cannot get 
updated.

I think the correct behaviour would be to fail with a 'cannot release with a 
SNAPSHOT dependency' exception in your case. 

You can easily work around this issue if you manually release the parent pom 
first.
