Hi, I am using the Maven release plugin and I am trying to make a release. When I am on master (I am using Git) I have SNAPSHOT versions for both my project (multimodule) and also for my dependencies (also multimodule).
Suppose I want to make a tag from master (skipping the creation of a branch) where no SNAPSHOTs are used. This is my simplified pom.xml: <project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi=" http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/maven-v4_0_0.xsd"> <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion> <artifactId>results</artifactId> <version>1.2-SNAPSHOT</version> <packaging>pom</packaging> <name>Results parent module</name> <modules> <module>results-web</module> <module>results-persistence</module> <module>results-domain</module> <module>results-logic</module> <module>results-logic-api</module> <module>results-ear</module> <module>results-configuration</module> <module>results-rules-ejb</module> <module>results-rules</module> <module>results-rest</module> </modules> <properties> <dependency1.version>1.2.3-SNAPSHOT</main.version> <dependency2.version>3.4.5-SNAPSHOT</main.version> </properties> <build> <pluginManagement> <plugins> <plugin> <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId> <artifactId>maven-release-plugin</artifactId> <version>2.4.1</version> <configuration> <tagNameFormat>@{project.version}</tagNameFormat> <autoVersionSubmodules>true</autoVersionSubmodules> <localCheckout>true</localCheckout> <pushChanges>false</pushChanges> </configuration> </plugin> </plugins> </pluginManagement> </build> <dependencyManagement> <dependencies> <dependency> <groupId>org.my.project</groupId> <artifactId>dependency1-domain</artifactId> <version>${dependency1.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.my.project</groupId> <artifactId>dependency1-enumerations</artifactId> <version>${dependency1.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.my.project</groupId> <artifactId>dependency1-logic</artifactId> <version>${dependency1.version}</version> <type>ejb</type> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.my.project</groupId> <artifactId>dependency2-domain</artifactId> <version>${dependency2.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.my.project</groupId> <artifactId>dependency2-enumerations</artifactId> <version>${dependency2.version}</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.my.project</groupId> <artifactId>dependency2-logic</artifactId> <version>${dependency2.version}</version> <type>ejb</type> </dependency> </dependencies> </dependencyManagement> </project> If I do: mvn release:prepare -Darguments="-dependency1.version=1.2.3.0 -Ddependency2.version=3.4.5.0" That creates a branch that still has SNAPSHOT dependencies: <properties> <dependency1.version>1.2.3-SNAPSHOT</main.version> <dependency2.version>3.4.5-SNAPSHOT</main.version> </properties> How would I generate a tag where the part above would be: <properties> <dependency1.version>1.2.3.0</main.version> <dependency2.version>3.4.5.0</main.version> </properties> Thank you, Markos -- Sent from my iPhone
