> Do I understand correctly that this is intended to provide an automatic fallback to the embedded vanilla Maven on platforms for which we (1) do not have a GraalVM native executable and (2) they have java <11? > > There is no change in behavior on systems where the mvnd native executable works (because that one is inherrently Java 11), right? Right. > > I wonder what are the advantages against running Maven in the traditional way on those systems? Improve the usability, and developers can only install mvnd package for a faster and more reliable maven. > > I wonder how portable the fallback is: we forward all command line parameters, some of which won't work with the embedded Maven. Now only few flags break the original maven. 1. Some of which _should_ break the invokes, e.g. `--completion|--purge|--status|--stop`, they have special effect only for mvnd. 2. Others, like `-1|--serial|--raw-streams`, could be removed in the fallback `main()` without changing the invoke purpose. Now this fix is not implemented to let the fallback codes clean to review. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
