Hi, If I want to start testing maven v4.x is it the master branch or the mvn4 branch I need to build? Or is there a guide I can look at with current/known issues or work arounds?
I've a few issues/features I would like to raise and see if I can do patches for, mostly more profile options like for; settings.xml profile support for servers and mirrors. extensions.xml profile support for extensions. profile activation based upon other profiles being active or disabled. i.e. the com.soebes.maven.extensions:maven-buildtime-profiler is good to look into high build times, but for day to day usage I don't want every developer or cicd build with the extra overhead or verbose output. Just want it on release builds or when a developer enables a specific profile. Someone with a home office nexus so has a <mirrorOf>*</mirrorOf> to their own proxy, then whilst at a conference want to build they need to change their default settings.xml to remove that mirror. I've 4 settings.xml depending if home, travelling, in office or building from a maven staging repo like maven-1731 (for surefire v3.0.0-M6). All things just seam simpler switching different profiles. Cheers, John
