[jira] (MRELEASE-736) Add dryRun flag to release:perform

    [ https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-736?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=309785#comment-309785 ] 

Jesse Glick commented on MRELEASE-736:
--------------------------------------

Perhaps I am missing something but rev. 1299865 seems incomplete. At least according to http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/perform-mojo.html#dryRun [t]he goals (by default at least {{deploy}}) will be executed against the current project. Is this just a matter of updating the Javadoc for {{PerformReleaseMojo.dryRun}}?

> Please consider to add the "dryRun" flag from the "release:prepare" to the "release:perform" goal too.
> I have the following use case:
> Jenkins/Hudson has a plugin called m2release which basically is there to help the user to trigger a maven release. This plugin allows to define a commandline which should be executed in case of a release build. The common configuration of this arguments are:
> "-Dresume=false release:prepare release:perform"
> the next version of the plugin would like to add a "dryRun" option when triggering a build and in this case it would just add "-DdryRun=true" to the configured arguments and thats it.
> Unfortunately this will not work, as the "release:perform" still gets executed and will fail.
> Of course I could also change the Jenkins/Hudson plugin, but this would mean I have to remove "release:perform" from the passed argument, which is relay ugly.
