So unfortunately we must provide the passphrase in the settings.xml file in clear text. This should change in the future when this bug is fixed. Note that this passphrase is put into the release profile which we activate to properly sign and release the artifacts and poms via the release plugin.

The gpg plugin will check use the default gpg key for the user deploying the project with the release:perform directive of the release plugin. This will prompt you for the passphrase for the default key. If you do not have one setup the build will fail.
