I never us the release plug-in so you can take my comments with a grain of salt.

From reading the docs I am not sure that these are right.

-DdevelopmentVersion=52.0.0-SNAPSHOT -DreleaseVersion=52.0.0


My interpretation is that you are trying to get maven to go backwards.
You are saying to release 52.0.0 and make a new snapshot of 52.0.0-SNAPSHOT which is not right.

-DdevelopmentVersion=52.0.1-SNAPSHOT -DreleaseVersion=52.0.0

seems to be the right arguments.

I am not sure why you are even using the release plug-in at all. If you just 
want to deploy a release of one module just use the deploy command.
Release wants to do a some magic to your project to get it setup for the next 
development cycle and I am not sure that you really want to do all this at this 
time.

If you just want to deploy the current release and start working on 
52.0.1-SNAPSHOT for one module, you can just deploy and change the pom to point 
the 52.0.1-SNAPSHOT parent and you are ready for the next development cycle. - 
Not worth wrestling with the release plug-in.

I hadn't specified a Maven release version anywhere, so I assume you meant
like this

     mvn -B -DdevelopmentVersion=52.0.0-SNAPSHOT -DreleaseVersion=52.0.0
-Dusername=***** -Dtag=myprojectt-52.0.0 -DskipTests -P prod -Dresume=false
-DdryRun=true org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-release-plugin:2.4.2:prepare

However, I get the same errors, whether I specify the project version like
this:

         <parent>
                 <artifactId>subco</artifactId>
                 <groupId>org.mainco.subco</groupId>
                 <version>52.0.0</version>
         </parent>

or like this

         <parent>
                 <artifactId>subco</artifactId>
                 <groupId>org.mainco.subco</groupId>
                 <version>52.0.0-SNAPSHOT</version>
         </parent>

Was there something more I needed to do? -
