mvn dependency:tree, multi-module and ${revision} - maven

Question

Does dependency:tree understand ${revision}?
I have a multi-module project X:
<groupId>org.X</groupId>
<artifactId>X-parent</artifactId>
<version>${revision}</version>
<properties>
<revision>8.0.0-SNAPSHOT</revision>
</properties>
<modules>
<module>X-A</module>
:
It is installed to my local .m2 (and only there).
I have a project Y which depends on X-A, revision 8.0.0-SNAPSHOT
Project Y's pom also includes:
<repositories>
<repository>
<id>rescarta</id>
<url>http://software.rescarta.org/nexus/content/groups/public/</url>
</repository>
</repositories>
When I run mvn dependency:tree on project Y, it complains:
$ mvn -U dependency:tree

Notice it is trying to download org.x:X-parent:pom:${revision}, not org.x:X-parent:pom:8.0.0-SNAPSHOT
Does dependency:tree not know how to resolve ${revision}?

Answer 1

The flatten-maven-plugin as explained at https://stackoverflow.com/a/52173650/1031689 seems to be an effective workaround.
