[ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-62?page=comments#action_81811 ] David Smiley commented on MRELEASE-62: --------------------------------------
As of this date, release:prepare appears not to run the install phase. I looked in my local repo and I didn't find the version I just prepared. I'd definitely prefer my releases to be installed because I might forget otherwise. > Option not to run install phase during realease:prepare > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MRELEASE-62 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MRELEASE-62 > Project: Maven 2.x Release Plugin > Issue Type: Bug > Environment: xp,clearcase,starteam > Reporter: Dan Tran > Assigned To: John Casey > > I have a build environments where daily release build is required and the > build is long ( 1 - 2 hours is the norm). > By using the current release plugin, the prepare step forces the install > phase, we end up to do the build at both > prepare and perform steps and therefore the build time is double. > I would like to propose that maven-release-plugin allows an option not to > invoke the install phase. Here are my > thoughts on this. > - Fail daily build is a norm, however failure is selfdom now with the help > of contiguous integration (ie Continuum). > > - Since the build is long, passing the prepare phase, does not mean it > will pass at perform phase since user > can checkin changes at the build phase in prepare step. > Thoughts? > Would binding preprare mojo to initialize phase is good enought? how can we > optionally change the execute phase > at run time? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
