I had looked that up at one point when I didn't understand much, but now I
went after it again. It's defined in the superpom (which can be found in
MAVEN_HOME/lib/maven-project-2.0.4.jar as
org/apache/maven/project/pom-4.0.0.xml for the curious). Here's the
"magic":
<profile>
<id>release-profile</id>
<activation>
<property>
<name>performRelease</name>
<value>true</value>
</property>
</activation>

I tried adding an <activeProfiles> section in my ~/.m2/settings.xml for
release-profile with no luck.
mvn -DperformRelease=true help:active-profiles
returns no active profiles. It still doesn't all make sense to me.
