Benjamin Bentmann commented on MRELEASE-123: -------------------------------------------- bq. but -N should definitely be copied to invoked command line I fully agree. That the Release Plugin is forking a Maven build is an implementation detail. A user shouldn't be bothered with pushing parameters down to this forked Maven invocation. By putting -N on the command line he stated his intention to perform a non-recursive build/release. What would be the rationale to repeat this intention? Are there use cases where the recursive flag would be different for the main build and the forked build? > release plugin does not take commandline parameters into account > ---------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-123 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-123 > Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 2.0-beta-4 > Reporter: Jorg Heymans > > i would like to do a release of a top-level pom only : intuitively i do "mvn > -N release:prepare".
