A very common and well working approach is to have a branch qualifier in the version and change the version of your project with the versions plugin.
So e.g. you would have 1.1.2-brancha-SNASPHOT 1.1.2-branchb-SNASPHOT and to update them after you cut the branch in your scm you could use mvn versions:set -=DnewVersion= 1.1.2-brancha-SNAPSHOT manfred On Mon, January 14, 2013 8:39 am, John Kramer wrote: > Hi guys, > > Please forgive me if this seems like a newbie question. > > > I am reasonably seasoned with Maven, but have never really handle > branching myself, and now I am put in the position where I am going to > have to.
