-------------------------------------
Summary: Set the same timestamp in multi module builds
Key: MNG-6754
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6754
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Michael Angstadt
When multi module snapshots are built using Maven, the version timestamp is
different for each module. This makes it difficult to quickly reference a
historical snapshot of a multi module project, which is something we might do
when determining when a bug was introduced.
[This Stack Overflow question|https://stackoverflow.com/q/45629816/2048802]
provides a good example of the problem. [The accepted
answer|https://stackoverflow.com/a/45715820/2048802] seems like a reasonable
solution, but does not appear to work. [Looking at the
code|https://github.com/apache/maven/blob/d9a0eee7fe2e2b1d77e59cf5bc772e758d29e47d/maven-resolver-provider/src/main/java/org/apache/maven/repository/internal/RemoteSnapshotMetadata.java#L85],
there does not appear to be a way to override the timestamp.
Please add a way to use a consistent timestamp for all modules in a build.
