----------------------------------

what "installation script" are you referring to? The bootstrap, for doing a 
development build?


> [data loss] installation script inconditionally deletes M2_HOME contents

> I've set up M2_HOME to a wrong directory by mistake, and the m2 installer 
> deleted everything in it...
> May I suggest to use the same strategy used by the cargo installer?
> I.e. 
> if (target directory empty || m2 marker file exists)
> - copy the contents
> - add a marker file specific to m2
> else
>   warn user
> See CARGO-27 for the original CARGO issue.
