As a fix you can always use this in your M2 Release Plugin Release goals and options : -DreleaseVersions=$MVN_RELEASE_VERSION -DsnapshotVersions=$MVN_DEV_VERSION
This way you have access to the variables in the job

Hello

I am also interested in this.

I use the m2release plugin, and when launching a release, I would like to trigger a "deploy" job (separate jenkins job). To do so, I need to know:

• if it is a release job => IS_M2RELEASEBUILD is good
• what version we just did build => ?

To make this work, I currently parse the full log of the console to get the version... which is not optimal

Could you publish something like "M2RELEASEBUILD_VERSION"?

Thanks

I would like MVN_RELEASE_VERSION_ACTUAL for cases where Maven (or your configured release goals) decides its own versions. MVN_RELEASE_VERSION is the passed in parameter which doesn't always have to be the version used (maybe you use $BUILD_NUMBER and/or something based on git describe)
