Be aware that you can't determine with which arguments the deploy was done.
So if you check out the sources from tag, how should you re-install these projects?
It should be as simple as 'mvn install'.
This means that the projects you don't want to release should keep their -SNAPSHOT version. There's a good chance that this has changed with m-release-p 2.4, since it checks the value of the release and development versions. Until now nobody had problems with it and that's a good thing. So maybe 2.3.2 is a better version for you, so you can keep the unreleasable projects on their old SNAPSHOT version.

Hi,

I was experimenting a little with the release plugin.

In one of my experiments I gave it a really long list of dev- and release-versions for a lot of artifacts using the "-Dproject.rel." and "-Dproject.dev." properties. Then I limited my maven build to only process a hand full of modules.

What I was expecting, was that in the modules in the reactor the versions I provided would have been used to update the versions of all the artifacts I provided the plugin with. But I had to realize that the artifact versions of only the artifacts in the reactor were updated, but also for the modules that were not included.

I find this way of processing quite problematic.

I would volunteer to have a look at the plugin and whip up a patch. But I guess this only makes sense, if there is a chance of my work actually being accepted.

What do you think about this?

Chris
