I notice that, when a release manager is cutting a new release, she or he
has to update the <version> element of all the dependent pom.xml files (in
the recent case, from 1.3.3-SNAPSHOT to 1.3.3, and then from 1.3.3 to
1.3.4-SNAPSHOT). Since these poms all inherit from a parent pom that has
the version number in it, is it possible to use ${pom.version} in all the
child poms as well, to avoid having to change this in more than one place?
The part that has to be changed in the child poms is the reference to
the parent.
Maven will actually do this automatically with 'mvn release:prepare'
and 'mvn release:perform'. (It removes -SNAPSHOT, commits the
changes, tags the repository, deploys the build and then switches to
the next version and commits again.)
We're waiting for the next version of the release plugin because the
current one completely rearranges the poms and removes all the
comments.
