Hello
Indeed, if the modules are structured hierarchically it works:
/trunk/parent
/trunk/parent/childA
/trunk/parent/childB
but you *must* ensure that SCM parameters are 100% correct.
i.e.:
/trunk/parent/pom.xml
<scm>
<connection>scm:svn:https://svnserver:18080/svn/trunk</connection>
<developerConnection>scm:svn:https://svnserver:18080/svn/trunk</developerConnection>
<url>https://svnserver:18080/viewvc/trunk</url>
</scm>
/trunk/parent/childA/pom.xml
<scm>
<connection>scm:svn:https://svnserver:18080/svn/trunk/childA</connection>
<developerConnection>scm:svn:https://svnserver:18080/svn/trunk/childA</developerConnection>
<url>https://svnserver:18080/viewvc/trunk/childA</url>
</scm>
/trunk/parent/childB/pom.xml
<scm>
<connection>scm:svn:https://svnserver:18080/svn/trunk/childB</connection>
<developerConnection>scm:svn:https://svnserver:18080/svn/trunk/childB</developerConnection>
<url>https://svnserver:18080/viewvc/trunk/childB</url>
</scm>
Then when you run the following command:
mvn release:branch -DbranchName=<branch name> -DupdateBranchVersions=true
-DupdateWorkingCopyVersions=true -DreleaseVersion=<releaseVersion>
-DdevelopmentVersion=<developmentVersion>
All modules are correctly branched to /branches/<branch name> with all versions
and SCM properties automatically updated
Thank you for your tips.
Frederic

We run the branch command manually.
I've never tried getting the release plugin to do this for us.
And as Nick suggests, move your parent one directory higher.
While Maven allows a Flat structure, there are lots of hidden gotchas
because a Hierarchy is really implied internally.
Perhaps you are running into one of these.
