Hi all, There are two settings.xml files: one in mvn's conf directory and the other in a user's home directory. I don't see many issues with putting mvn's setting.xml under SCM. We put the maven binaries and setting.xml under SCM and both developers and certification people find this helpful in that it provides a consistent environment. Maven's settings.xml contains common profiles, mirrors, and so on. The user's settings.xml may contain user names and passwords. The comment about not putting user specific data in Maven's settings.xml is correct whether you use SCM or not.
If a particular user wants to put his own settings.xml file in SCM then who am I to complain?

I also don't think you should put it under source control. Better to create a "super" pom for all your projects or to have an "example" settings.xmlunder souce control that developers can use to create their own settings.xml. regards, Wim Op 08-06-07 heeft [EMAIL PROTECTED] < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> het volgende geschreven: > > > > Hi Moe, > > Are you sure you want settings.xml under source control?
