Please DON'T do that!!!
People have to learn using maven and tycho properly. Such scripts have
2 negative effects:
* getting out of sync with the build tools we use more often than they
are usefull
* not encouraging people to learn the tools
It's not that hard for someone to run e.g.
mvn tycho-versions:set-version -DnewVersion=0.9.0 just before tagging and
mvn tycho-versions:set-version -DnewVersion=0.9.1-SNAPSHOT for the
next release after tagging
Note that this might not act in the same way as people might expect
because if the versions in pom.xml and MANIFEST.MF/feature.xml
mismatch only the pom.xml version will be changed. But this is a nice
way to finally cleanup the versions and produce smth sane.
We do not have enough manpower to allow us working on custom tools
when there are already better one created and maintained by someone
else.
