Git flow: How to configure a one-click release process in Jenkins?

Question

We are using the standard git flow branching model (develop, master, release-, hotfix-, etc).

As part of our workflow, we would like to set up a \"one-click\" r

Answer 1

We ended up with starting the release via CLI on the client (because in Jenkins there is a bug starting the release).

git flow release start -DautoVersionSubmodules=true

If you want to use the batch mode you need to specify developmentVersion and releaseVersion.

Created a new job in Jenkins to build the release branch and use the M2 Release Plugin to release it finally:

-B jgitflow:release-finish

If you use some custom profiles, you have to pass them additional via arguments caused by a bug.

-Darguments=-Pprofile
