Hi Maven Release Plugin Team,

I am currently working with a standard multi-module Maven project and am interested in understanding the capabilities of the Maven Release Plugin regarding releasing individual submodules. Specifically, I would like to know if the plugin supports performing a release operation targeting only a specific submodule within a multi-module project, without affecting the other modules.

In typical use cases, the Maven Release Plugin handles versioning and tagging for the entire project, which is beneficial for maintaining consistency across all modules. However, there are scenarios where only a particular submodule needs to be released independently due to different versioning or deployment requirements.

Could you please clarify whether the Maven Release Plugin currently supports this functionality? If not, are there any recommended approaches or workarounds to achieve this within the existing framework?

Thank you for your assistance and for the continued development of this valuable tool.

Best regards,

Dino
