Why don't you just run install during release:prepare?
http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/examples/run-goals-before-commit.html.
By default, install is not run (because it's not really released yet; but
typically causes issues with multi-module builds that use dependency plugin
or otherwise assumes the artifacts to be available)
