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

             Summary: .mvn/maven.config does not expand environmental variables
                 Key: MNG-5930
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5930
             Project: Maven
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 3.3.3
         Environment: Linux mint 17.2

java version "1.8.0_66"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_66-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.66-b17, mixed mode)

            Reporter: William Buss


environmental variables used in .mvn/maven.config are not expanded out.

running 
mvn clean install -Dmaven.repo.local=$HOME/.m2/otherRepo
correctly creates and uses the local repo in /home/user/.m2/otherRepo

if the argument -Dmaven.repo.local=$HOME/.m2/otherRepo, is placed in the 
.mvn/maven.config file, then the local repo used is
current working directory/$HOME/.m2/otherRepo
