--------------------------------------

Yes, this would be great. We encounter the same issue with our Teamcity build infrastructure.

> When triggering a release from a shared server (e.g. a globally shared jenkins), it is useful to let the release manager use his own credentials for the release. The release plugin from https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/M2+Release+Plugin supports that for username, password authentication. In case of SSH authentication I cannot inject anything, because the maven-release-plugin does not provide that option. It would be great if you could allow to pass in an arbitrary SSH key (together with a passphrase) to be used during the release.
> That should work with jGit and Native Git.
