-----------------------------------
Summary: Support inheritable multiple settings
Key: MNG-6768
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6768
Project: Maven
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Settings
Reporter: Marco Brandizi
As far as I know, the --settings option supports just one settings file. Worse,
when it is used, user settings in ~/.m2/settings.xml are ignored (not tried,
but I suspect global settings are too).
To me, this is wrong and poor. It would be much better if
# user and global settings were inherited and possibly overridden by the
further settings file.
# multiple --settings <file> could be specified and a merge of settings could
be composed by maven (eg, <profile> blocks would come from multiple files,
<properties> would be overridden, considering the order in the command line).
