Hi Christian,

Where would you update the features XML ? In the system repo ?
When you call a feature refresh, do you take only from system repo or from a remote repo ?

Hi all,

sometimes we have the issue that a feature file of an already released
project is incorrect. Another similar case is if a small issue appears
that can be fixed by just patching a single bundle.
In both cases it is necessary to change an existing feature file to make
this work without a new release and without making user apps bump up the
dependency to the feature file to the next bugfix release number.

So I thought about a way to patch feature files at runtime.

The idea is to have a config with:
<mvn url of feature>:<path to patch>

This config would make the feature command apply the patches to the
named feature files after loading them. So a user could patch their
feature files to quickly fix simple issues.

What do you think?

Christian
