Updating your local maven cache will help to ensure that the release process goes more smoothly, and should help you to avoid any errors having to do with Maven being unable to locate any particular dependencies. That being said, this step actually may not be necessary, if our release process is working correctly.

mvn release:prepare -DdryRun=true -Dmirage2.on=true
# NOTE: for DSpace 5.x, the LNI module must be manually specified (-Pdspace-lni) to ensure it is also released
# NOTE: for DSpace 4.x no need to add profile

You will have to enter in your GPG passphrase (which you established when you created your Code Signing Key).

mvn release:prepare -Dresume=false -Dmirage2.on=true
# NOTE: for DSpace 5.x, the LNI module must be manually specified (-Pdspace-lni) to ensure it is also released
# NOTE: for DSpace 4.x no need to add profile

mvn release:perform -Dmirage2.on=true
# NOTE: for DSpace 5.x, the LNI module must be manually specified (-Pdspace-lni) to ensure it is also released
# NOTE: for DSpace 4.x no need to add profile
