  • -DdevelopmentVersion - this is the next snapshot version. It should be one minor version above the release version and it should always end with -SNAPSHOT. i.e. 6.2.0-SNAPSHOT, 5.7.0-SNAPSHOT
  • -Dtag - this is the git release tag which will point to the release commit. It is <repository name>-<release version>. i.e. fcrepo-camel-toolbox-6.1.0, fcrepo-import-export-6.2.0, fcrepo-6.5.0
  • -DautoVersionSubmodules=true - because Fedora is made up of a bunch of modules, this ensure they also get processed.
  • -DpushChanges=false 0 - this ensure changes are not automatically pushed to Github.
