RE: [m2]release:prepare requires snapshots ?
"... I am not comfortable enough with them to count on it working right every time." That is not completely accurate. I discovered the checkpoints after learning (through trial and error) about the release plug-in. I can see in the code that they should work every time, but I did not know about them when I started. Not knowing about them at that time gave me the impression of a process that we not repeatable. Therefore, I am now in the habit of removing the properties file when the release:prepare does not end with a good result. It would be nice to take a look into the checkpoints, to see how they can help. Thank you, Michael I usually perform a synch or compare before executing the release:prepare. I agree that a failure or user abort during that goal is not transactional in nature. I know that checkpoints exist in the release.properties file, but I am not comfortable enough with them to count on it working right every time. I usually blow that file away and start over. On the bright side, once you can get through it, the process is nicer than the manual alternatives.

Hi, I perform a cvs compare before i run the release:prepare and everything is ok.

When performing release:prepare in a sub project, the parent cannot be in snapshot state. The key here is that we want to be able to reproduce the build with a label.

Hi, Should i be able to do a release:prepare from a parent project ? If the parent project does not have a snapshot version number, then it will fail. But if the parent has a snapshot number then it will fail when it runs the release:prepare at the child project because it can't release due to a non released parent. thanks patrick dan tran <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 12/22/2005 08:52 PM Please respond to "Maven Users List" To Maven Users List cc Subject Re: [m2]release:prepare requires snapshots ?

Hi, I'm am trying to use the release:prepare goal. I can see from the source code that it is supposed to throw an exception if the project being release is not a snapshot. Why is this ? Kind regards, Patrick O'Shea
