Hi Jeremy, The maven-release-plugin forks to do the release. So I think you have to use an additional -Dparameters="-Pversion" (See http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-release-plugin/prepare-mojo.html#arguments ).
Be aware I'm not totally sure it will work for profiles since I never needed it, although I did a lot of releases with this plugin; Btw, shouldn't this profile be always on? Is there cases where you don't want to generate this file?
