CLI Property has lower priority than pom property

[vhochstein]

HEAD HEAD

./mvnw -X generate-resources -DfromRef=21.03.01.02 -DtoRef=21.03.01.03

My expectaction would be that cli parameter overrite maven config parameter values.

However actually HEAD is used as value for both parameters

How did you configure the plugin in your pom.xml? Perhaps if you change it to have properties for from/to, like this:

    <properties>
        <fromRef>HEAD</fromRef>
        <toRef>HEAD</toRef>
    </properties>

....
                    <execution>
                        <id>GenerateGitReleasenotes11</id>
                        <phase>generate-sources</phase>
                        <goals>
                            <goal>git-changelog</goal>
                        </goals>
                        <configuration>
                            <file>RELEASENOTES.md</file>
                            <fromRef>${fromRef}</fromRef>
                            <toRef>${toRef}</toRef>
                        </configuration>
                    </execution>

yes using properties is working, thanks a lot for the hint
