Description

The updateWorkingCopyVersions configuration parameter was initially introduced on release:branch, then in 2.1 MRELEASE-458 also added it to release:prepare. Changing updateWorkingCopyVersions for one goal doesn't necessarily imply that it should also be changed for the other.

Since Maven does not support configuration per goal, consider renaming this parameter so that different values can be used for branch and prepare.
