Bouiaw commented on MCLEAN-39:
------------------------------

>From what I saw, there is a few code in the clean plugin, and from a diff 
>between 2.1.1 (where the issue did not occure) and 2.3, I don't see any change 
>that could cause this bug.

I think the issue come from something that has been broken between Maven 
file-management 1.0 (Maven clean 2.1.1) and Maven file-management 1.2.1 (Maven 
clean 2.3), eventually from its plexus-utils dependency.

For information, this bug is not testable with Maven Clean 2.2 (file-management 
1.2) because of http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCLEAN-28.

> From my tests, followSymLinks that is used to delete the content of symlink 
> when it is set to true, is not taken in account.
> It should be a regression caused by http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MCLEAN-28
> This is a blocker bug, since it could delete all the filesystem easily, and 
> there is no workaround. Even when I set followSymLinks  explicitley to false, 
> Maven clean 2.3 follow symlinks and delete its contents.
> To reproduce :
> Declare 2.3 clean plugin in your pom
> mkdir /tmp/test
> touch /tmp/test/foo
> symlink -s /tmp/test /myproject/target/test
> cd /myproject
> mvn clean
> After runnig that, /tmp/test is empty !
> If it is confirmed, I would recommand to release quickly a 2.4 version with a 
> fix, since in is REALLY dansgerous.
