mvn help should always work no matter how broken the repository or the pom is.
otherwise it isn't help. Usually the thing that is broken with any product is the configuration/installation. Requiring that mvn help have a god pom.xml or even a good repo to work is missing the point of "help" think about "mvn help" as being equal to "mvn help!-my-manager-is-yelling-at-me-from-1-meter-away-and-something-is-broken-and-i-feel-like-an-idiot" :-) On 9/27/07, Stefano Bagnara <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Patrick Moore ha scritto: > > what does "mvn help" or "mvn -?" get the end user? > > mvn help when ran in a folder with a pom.xml should definitely show a > list of available tasks. > > Maybe you want to vote for this JIRA issue, to let maven developes know > you need this: > http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG-2166 (read also my comment). > > Stefano > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >
