Paul Gier commented on MRELEASE-173:
------------------------------------
Ok, I could add releaseVersion and devVersion as default versions which can be
overridden by the more specific properties which include the groupId and
artifactId. But being able to release a multi-module project with multiple
versions is an important feature IMO. We currently have a project set up like
that, so handling only single version releases would not help me.

> Key: MRELEASE-173
> URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-173
> Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-3, 2.0-beta-4, 2.0-beta-5
> Reporter: Chris Tucker
> Assignee: Paul Gier
> Fix For: 2.0-beta-8

> Attachments: release-version.diff

> It is convenient in a batchMode environment to specify the version to release
> and the new version to update SNAPSHOT artifacts to. The attached patch
> against maven-release-manager and maven-release-plugin provides the basic
> functionality to allow this.
> The maven-release-plugin will now accept two new arguments:
> -DreleaseVersion=<version string for release>
> -DdevVersion=<version string for next development cycle>
> For example, to release version 1.2 of a project and move up to version
> 2.0-SNAPSHOT one would issue:
> $ mvn release:clean release:prepare -DreleaseVersion=1.2 -DdevVersion=2.0
> --batch-mode
> This patch is against current trunk (471862). It currently doesn't support
> resuming, so a release:clean is necessary if a previous release attempt has
> been prepared.
