Hi maven people,
We have projects we want to release using the maven-release-plugin. Moreover,
we want to perform our releases in Hudson, with the help of the M2release
(hudson) plugin. This is a dream come true: perform a release on a single
push of a button (actually, more of a link).
Now, to do this without fiddling with the version number, I need to be able to
rely on conventions:
- releaseVersion is OK (defaults to ex. 1.0.0)
- developmentVersion is OK (defaults to ex. 1.0.1-SNAPSHOT)
- tagBase is OK (I can specify it directly in the POM)
The value causing me trouble is the release tag label. I would have liked to
have it this way:
<project ...>
<version>1.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
...
<plugin>
<groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
<artifactId>maven-release-plugin</artifactId>
<configuration>
<tag>release-${pom.version}</tag>
...
</project>
But, this gives me a SCM tag with the '-SNAPSHOT' suffix. Not good. And I
don't want to explicitly mention the version in the Hudson job configuration.
Is there a way I can get the tag label to use the correct release version?
Thank you for your answers.
