> I need to increase my jvm size for my build. The forked release doesn't get the maven_opts. I tried the -Darguments:
> mvn release:prepare -DdryRun=true -Darguments=-Xmx1024m 
> gets me this:  
>    [INFO] Invalid task 'mx1024m': you must specify a valid lifecycle phase, or 
>  a goal in the format plugin:goal or pluginGroupId:pluginArtifactId:pluginVersion 
>  :goal
