I am trying to create a branch from a tag with the release plugin. I have a checkout from trunk and try the following command:
mvn release:branch -Dtag=TestProject-1.4 -DbranchName=TestProject-1.4.x s -DupdateBranchVersions=true I was expecting that a branch (/branches/TestProject-1.4.x) was created from a tag (/tags/TestProject-1.4) but it is created from the current trunk (/trunk). It seems the -Dtag option doesn't do anything, because it is creating a branch from the current trunk. Is it really necessary to checkout a tag before branching it? I've looked at the ReleaseManager source and it seems the tag option isn't considered at all. With regards, Nick Stolwijk ~Java Developer~ Iprofs BV.
