Robert Scholte commented on MRELEASE-963: ----------------------------------------- When running {{mvn release:prepare \-DtagNameFormat=custom-\@\{project.version} -X}} I see the proper value being set. Also when setting it as a property inside the {{pom.xml}} it works as expected. This is done by Maven core and cannot be a plugin issue. Be aware that if the value for tagNameFormat is already set in the effective pom, you cannot overwrite it with a parameter anymore, unless you add this again: {code:xml} <tagNameFormat>${tagNameFormat}</tagNameFormat> {code} > User property for tagNameFormat is ignored > ------------------------------------------ > > Key: MRELEASE-963 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MRELEASE-963 > Project: Maven Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Components: prepare > Affects Versions: 2.5.3 > Reporter: Christopher Tubbs > > I attempted to override the {{tagNameFormat}} in my pom.xml, using: > {code:xml} > <properties> > <tagNameFormat>custom-@{project.version}</tagNameFormat> > </properties> > {code} > This did not work. The property was completely ignored. It does work if you > set the property in the plugin's configuration in the {{<pluginManagement>}} > section, though. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
