Martin Kanters commented on MNG-6981:
-------------------------------------
It could, but that will involve bigger changes and I don't see the added
benefit as we have a working alternative (-f and --non-recursive).
> Add --recursive option
> ----------------------
>
> Key: MNG-6981
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6981
> Project: Maven
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Command Line
> Affects Versions: 3.6.3
> Reporter: Knut Wannheden
> Priority: Major
>
> Since there is already a {{\--non-recursive}} option a new {{\--recursive}}
> option might be confusing, but let me explain my use case. I often use the
> {{-pl}} option and in a multi-module Maven project with more than just two
> "levels", I would like to be able to build a project (or set of projects)
> including all child-modules. This is, AFAIK, currently not possible and what
> I would like to use the new {{\--recursive}} (or similar) option for.
