Don't attempt to fetch from remote when using non final versioning strategy

I think if you want to skip the fetch you could just exclude the prepare task.

./gradlew release -x prepare

or permanently:

build.gradle

prepare.enabled = false

Ah, missed the push in release. It will always try to push the branch you're on if it's not a detached head, even if there's no tag to push. This isn't configurable right now, and given the maintenance status of this project, I'd rather not change it now.

You can probably work around this by not running release and leaving prepare disabled. Neither of them is doing anything you want, given your use case.

Alternatively, my replacement plugin for the release-* plugins (reckon) only interacts with the remote if you explicitly call reckonTagPush. That might work better for your use case.

@ajoberstar that's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks!

@ajoberstar so while that gets us further, meaning the initial call out to the remote repo in the prepare task is "skipped", we still get a failed build at the end when the release task fails to push remotely (even though we're on a SNAPSHOT) version. Any thoughts/ideas?

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.

Thanks. Yeah I ended up getting around by doing something like "if releaseStage == 'final' apply and configure plugin; else read tag from disk and invoke publish task only". It's not pretty IMO but gets the job done.

I'll check out your reckon plugin when I've got a few cycles to spare.
