update: 1) extending maven-release-plugin / jenkins m2release by itself, http://maven.apache.org/maven-release/maven-release-plugin/ https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/M2+Release+Plugin will not work - need orchestration plugin.
2) cascade orchestration plugin is here, 30% done: https://github.com/barchart/barchart-jenkins-cascade-plugin 3) proposed target project family repository layout is here https://github.com/barchart/barchart-jenkins-tester feedback & code review is appreciated. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: maven-release-plugin : How to better manage cascading releases From: Jeff <predato...@gmail.com> To: jenkinsci-users@googlegroups.com Date: Thu 28 Feb 2013 12:20:14 PM CST > I would guess we would likely want/need both, unless there is a way to > tell Maven to "deploy" snapshot or release artifacts only to the local > repository.
