Hi,

I personally think, that committing those files would not be a good
idea, because:

(1) they may be generated automatically by maven
(2) many people will modify the files while working - so you will
always have to crosscheck and take care before checking in
(3) how about those not using idea but eclipse, jbuilder, netbeans,
etc. ? should we also commit those files ?

Before maven we used to commit the project files, too. But then we
were never quite happy because, there were unintented committals or
other strugles - one time we committed templates but always forgot to
adapt them. Hence, I am really happy with having maven to generate the
files for me today. It also gives better consistency.

Just my $.02.

Regards
Felix

Isn't there quite a lot of people using Idea around here. Would be really
convenient to have the project and module files committed, especially if the
dependencies are referenced via a M2_REPO variable to the Maven2 local
repo/cache.
