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

I found out that it was probably my mistake, because when I used *-DdevelopmentVersion=1.4.0-SNAPSHOT* it worked correctly ...

What made me lose considerable time researching this is a lack of a WARNING message telling me that a NON-SNAPSHOT version will be ignored.

> I have a simple multimodule (1 parent, 2 child projects) using the version 1.1.2-SNAPSHOT in all the modules. When I use the following command I am offered version 1.1.3-SNAPSHOT to be the new working copy version.
> {code}
> mvn -DdryRun=true release:clean release:branch -DbranchName=branchName -DdevelopmentVersion=1.4.0 -DautoVersionSubmodules=true
> {code}
> I tried using older version of the plugin, and the first version that works OK when I went back through all the versions is 2.3.2. There I am offered the correct version (according to the documentation - http://maven.apache.org/maven-release/maven-release-plugin/branch-mojo.html#developmentVersion).
