---------------------------------------
This functionality would be very useful when you want to check out and modify a
released project. For example, there is a bug in FooProject 2.4.0 which I want
to patch; I've checked FooProject's source code, and I want to change all of
the POM versions to 2.4.0.1-SNAPSHOT so that I can create a version which is
equal to 2.4.0 except for having my one change in it.

> Trying to use the {{update-versions}} goal fails if the project is not at a
> {{SNAPSHOT}} version. This is a little silly, as one of the reasons for using
> this goal is to fix that exact problem.
> It currently fails with:
