> I have tried passing versions for certain modules to the command line while making a branch. The plugin ignores my parameters when running release:branch. It injects the defaults if I pass parameters in batch mode.
> E.g. this command taken from the documentation does not work.
> mvn --batch-mode release:branch -DbranchName=my-branch-1.2 -Dproject.rel.org.myCompany:projectA=1.2 \
>      -Dproject.dev.org.myCompany:projectA=2.0-SNAPSHOT
> release:prepare supports this specific format for setting these values at command line.
> Setting these values in a release.properties file e.g.
> project.dev.org.myCompany\:projectA=2.0-SNAPSHOT
> project.rel.org.myCompany\:projectA=1.2
> works also fine.
> Specifying the default at commandline works also e.g.
> mvn --batch-mode release:branch -DbranchName=my-branch-1.2 -DreleaseVersion=1.2 \
>      -DdevelopmentVersion=2.0-SNAPSHOT
