Thomas Marti commented on MRELEASE-387:
---------------------------------------

Hi

We're desperately waiting for this patch...anyway to speed up its inclusion??

In response to Ryan Senior...I think we have to copy the following lines from {{PrepareReleaseMojo.java}} to {{BranchReleaseMojo.java}} as well:
{noformat}// Create a config containing values from the system properties (command line properties).
ReleaseDescriptor sysPropertiesConfig = ReleaseUtils.copyPropertiesToReleaseDescriptor( System.getProperties() );
mergeCommandLineConfig( config, sysPropertiesConfig );{noformat}
And obviously the {{mergeCommandLineConfig()}} method has to be made protected and moved up to {{AbstractReleaseMojo.java}}.

> I have tried all the various permutations for passing versions to the command line while making a branch. The plugin ignores my parameters when running release:branch. It either interactively prompts for new versions, or injects the defaults if I pass parameters in batch mode.
> Here's an example of two commands I have tried running that don't work:
> mvn release:branch -DbranchName=RB-[top-level-project-name]-1.0.4 -DautoVersionSubmodules=true -DupdateBranchVersions=true -DupdateWorkingCopyVersions=false -DdevelopmentVersion=1.0.4-SNAPSHOT
> mvn release:branch -DbranchName=RB-[top-level-project-name]-1.0.4 -DautoVersionSubmodules=true -DupdateBranchVersions=true -DupdateWorkingCopyVersions=false -Dproject.dev.[org package].[top-level-project-name]=1.0.4-SNAPSHOT
> Both of those commands prompt me for versions and no matter what parameters I type use the current project revision as the default. If I do batch mode with --batch or -B, the release plugin just injects the current project revision into the branch and ignores my parameters.
