Maven release from Git branch
Hello list!
I use Git, maven-release-plugin, Hudson, and the Hudson M2 Release
Plugin. Can I perform a release from a Git branch other than "master"?
Right now, to do a release, Hudson checks out the "master" branch and
calls "mvn release:prepare release:perform". If the release succeeds,
the M2 Extra Steps Plugin runs "git push origin master `git tag | grep
-v ^hudson`" to update Git tags.
If I change my Hudson config to build a different branch, like
"1.2.x", will the maven-release-plugin still do the right thing?
Thanks,

Thanks for the advice, Brett.
As it turned out, I didn't need to change anything in Maven. I just
changed the Hudson configuration to checkout a different branch. I use
Hudson post-build actions to push release tags instead of the Maven
Release plugin, so that I can prevent it from pushing tags if the
build fails.

I believe so. You may need to set the <tag> element in the <scm> section of the POM on the branch. In my experience, the release plugin correctly releases in that situation (I'm not using Hudson for that, however).
