Maven release:perform without deploy and calling an external shell script

Question

I am using the maven release plugin. Problem is simple: I don\'t want to do a deploy on release:perform. I actually want to execute a shell script that will do the deploy for me

Answer 1

A little late, but for reference:

For your step 1, you can disable the maven deploy step by using the "skip" option. Click here for reference.

On the commandline you could call something like:

mvn release:perform -Darguments="-Dmaven.deploy.skip=true"
