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

Re: [m2]release:prepare requires snapshots ?





It follows maven development process where

 - during development, every one works on snapshots

 - at release time, the snapshost got changed to release version, check
back into SCM, label, and build.
   This is where customer can use, including qa, stake holder, etc

 - then the version is increamented with snapshot and check into SCM again.
