Check that 'new development version' is a SNAPSHOT version -----------------------------------------------------------
Key: MRELEASE-269 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-269 Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin Issue Type: Wish Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-6 Reporter: Michael Meyer Priority: Trivial While executing 'mvn release:prepare' one gets asked for the new development version like this: What is the new development version for "foo"? (com.bar:foo) 1.12-SNAPSHOT: Say I want the new development version to be 2.0-SNAPSHOT (and not like suggested 1.12-SNAPSHOT) but by accident I only enter 2.0. This will work just fine until I want to execute 'mvn release:prepare' again at some later point. Then I will get the error message that the current version is not a SNAPSHOT version. It would be really nice if release:prepare could check if I have entered a valid SNAPSHOT version. If not release:prepare should fail or even nicer ask me to enter a proper SNAPSHOT version. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
