I wonder, whether this couldn't be handled at the Java level? If so, there
would be no need to change script files, making them even more complex than
they already are.
> .mvn directory should be picked when using --file
> -------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: MNG-5889
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-5889
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Bootstrap & Build
> Affects Versions: 3.3.3
> Reporter: Daniel Spilker
>
> The {{.mvn}} directory is not picked up when using the {{--file}} switch to
> build a project from outside of the multi-module root.
> Example:
> * the module root is {{/foo/bar}}
> * {{.mvn}} is located at {{/foo/bar/.mvn}}
> * current directory is {{/foo}}
> * Maven is invoked with {{mvn --file bar/module/pom.xml}}
> I would expect the {{.mvn}} directory detection to start at the directory of
> the POM selected by {{--file}} and then go through the parent directories.
