[MINSTALL-202] Version property is not expanded for destination path

**[Jimisola Laursen](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=jimisola)** opened **[MINSTALL-202](https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MINSTALL-202?redirect=false)** and commented

I recently [contributed](https://github.com/mojohaus/versions/issues/1071) the goal [versions:use-dynamic-version-from-scm](https://www.mojohaus.org/versions/versions-maven-plugin/use-dynamic-version-from-scm-mojo.html)
to MojoHaus Versions Maven plugin with the help of [sjaranowski](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ViewProfile.jspa?name=sjaranowski) .

The goal is to allow dynamic versioning using [Maven CI Friendly Versions](https://maven.apache.org/maven-ci-friendly.html) by setting a property (revision), i.e. 

```java
${revision}
```

However, it turns out that 

```java
./mvnw org.codehaus.mojo:versions-maven-plugin:2.17.1:use-dynamic-version-from-scm install -useVersion=0.0.0
```

does not give the correct destination path but rather:

/home/u30576/.m2/repository/se/lfv/lips3/microservices/ms001/${revision}/ms001-${revision}-spring-boot.jar

as seen below.

 

```java
u30576@DCL0004:~/dev/clones/sysdev/lips3/microservices/ms001 (main)$./mvnw org.codehaus.mojo:versions-maven-plugin:2.17.1:use-dynamic-version-from-scm install -useVersion=0.0.0

I'm aware that Maven outputs "[INFO] Building ms001 ${revision}" initially (before the plugin has run) but I reckon that _initialize_ is the correct phase to execute the plugin in.

Build Info:
