Description

Currently, the build_release_candidate.sh does many things beyond the build

• Edits files in place to update the version from SNAPSHOT to non-SNAPSHOT
• Makes a local commit
• Pushes commits to release branch
• Reverts on failure, pushes those to release branch

Instead, the release manager should determine what gets pushed. It is less fragile of a process and avoids cruft getting pushed and churning the branch. The only thing the plugin is really good for is flipping SNAPSHOT away and back. And it isn't even that great because that's Java only and other languages are at non-SNAPSHOT anyhow.
