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. So I have two things to accomplish:

1. Somehow disable the default "deploy" goal from release:perform

2. Somehow make release:perform call the exec:exec plugin to execute a shell script

Here is my pom:

<plugin>
    <artifactId>maven-release-plugin</artifactId>
    <version>2.0</version>
    <configuration>
        <tagBase>svn://saoj-la.dyndns.org/webapp-test/tags</tagBase>
        <connectionUrl>scm:svn:svn://saoj-la.dyndns.org/webapp-test/trunk</connectionUrl>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

<plugin>
    <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
    <artifactId>exec-maven-plugin</artifactId>
    <executions>
        <execution>
            <goals>
                <goal>exec</goal>
            </goals>
        </execution>
    </executions>
    <configuration>
        <executable>/bin/sh</executable>
        <arguments>
            <argument>run.sh</argument>
        </arguments>
    </configuration>
</plugin>

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"
