+1 with the fact pom.xml are only files for git (or svn).

So this is actually not a Maven release plugin question, but more a git
one. It's up to you to know which commit you want to merge with. Might be
difficult though (easier than with svn though ;)). Cherry-picking could be
a solution but would be quite a bit ugly regarding your commit graph...
