Re: [m2] release:prepare generateReleasePoms?

Hi,

Are there any news about the generation of release-pom.xml with
release:prepare ?

The Mergere book talks about release-pom.xml without even mentioning
generateReleasePoms argument - which anyway seems to be useless since, as
stated below, the related code is not implemented (yet ?).

Has there been a policy change about this ? Are evolutions planned ? I
looked into JIRA but couldn't find anything.

TIA,
- Yann

RE: release:perform

Posted by Andreas Guther <An...@markettools.com>.
Isn't the release plug-in asking for the tag version during the prepare
phase?  If I remember correctly you then could just correct the version
number in the pom manually before you run the prepare.

Is there a way to do a release:perform off a tag but have it release to
a new version?
 
I have a tag app-x.x-RC-1 and I'd like to release it to app-x.x
 
Thanks,
