Joeri Leemans commented on MRELEASE-760:
----------------------------------------
We are using a multi-module project. Let's say we start at 1.0-SNAPSHOT and do
a release (release 1.0). If all modules bump up to 1.1-SNAPSHOT, then next time
I do a release they'll be at 2.0, even though there may have been no changes in
that module. I want to avoid a version increment if there was no change.
We'd like to leave the version at 1.0. As soon as someone changes a module and
commits, an SCM trigger (SVN in our case) checks whether the pom is in a
SNAPSHOT version. So then it is up to the developer to change the version of
the pom to 1.1-SNAPSHOT. That way versions are only incremented when there are
actual changes to a module.
> updateWorkingCopyVersions=false still bumps up pom versions to next
> development version

> Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: prepare
> Affects Versions: 2.3

> The flag updateWorkingCopyVersions (more specifically with value "false") is
> not handled correctly.
> Attached project is a simple Maven project with version 1.0-SNAPSHOT,
> depending on version 2.3 of the release plugin. It is configured with
> dryRun=true and updateWorkingCopyVersions=false.
> When running mvn:prepare (and accepting the versions that are proposed),
> you'll see that pom.xml.next file contains 1.1-SNAPSHOT (the next development
> version) instead of 1.0 (the tagged version).
