Jesse Glick commented on MRELEASE-736:
--------------------------------------
@Robert your comment of Mar 12 suggests that this Javadoc is quite wrong, and
that it should say something like:
The {{deploy}} goal (or whatever is configured in {{goals}}) will _not_ be
executed.
> Add dryRun flag to release:perform
> ----------------------------------
>
> Key: MRELEASE-736
> URL: https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-736
> Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: perform
> Affects Versions: 2.2.2
> Environment: mvn 3.0.3
> Reporter: Dominik Bartholdi
> Assignee: Robert Scholte
> Fix For: 2.3

> Please consider to add the "dryRun" flag from the "release:prepare" to the
> "release:perform" goal too.
> I have the following use case:
> Jenkins/Hudson has a plugin called m2release which basically is there to help
> the user to trigger a maven release. This plugin allows to define a
> commandline which should be executed in case of a release build. The common
> configuration of this arguments are:
> "-Dresume=false release:prepare release:perform"
> the next version of the plugin would like to add a "dryRun" option when
> triggering a build and in this case it would just add "-DdryRun=true" to the
> configured arguments and thats it.
> Unfortunately this will not work, as the "release:perform" still gets
> executed and will fail.
> Of course I could also change the Jenkins/Hudson plugin, but this would mean
> I have to remove "release:perform" from the passed argument, which is relay
> ugly.
